Summary: The true Auntie Mame!
Comment: Mame Dennis takes her orphaned nephew on the ride of a lifetime in this often touching and always hilarious film! As the single uncle of an entire clan of (biological & non-biological) nephews & nieces, Auntie Mame is a great role model for Uncle Craigie! I try to teach my minions to "Live, Live, Live! Life's a Banquet and most poor suckers are starving to death!"

Summary: Live! Live! Live!
Comment: This is one of my all-time favorite movies and a far superior movie to its musical counterpart MAME with Lucille Ball. It's a great movie for anyone who likes to veer off the mainstream. Rosalind Russell is wonderful as Auntie Mame who is always living life to the fullest no matter what difficult circumstances she may find herself in. That she is able to pass this positive attitude on to her nephew and her secretary is her great acheivement. This funny, touching movie is one I can and have watched over and over when I'm feeling a little down in order to lift my spirits.

Summary: Dah-link...what HAVE you got on????
Comment: OK...this is a near perfect film. By all means don't miss it.
But, as a costume designer, I must complain about the costumes. They are outrageous and lov-er-ly, but this film was made in 1958 and all the clothes are 1958....which would be OK if the actual story didn't take place from 1929 - 1941. Since the passage of time is so very important in this film, why did the designer ignore period styles? (They didn't in the dreary musical version) I don't care if it is super accurate or not, but to just make it all MODERN clothes? (for 1958) This show is a designer's dream: wealthy society types, north and south, for 3 decades running? Sign me up!
I deduct one star for ignoring the period.
But the rest is perfect (even the clothes that are there are "right" in feel, just not in style) so buy it and watch it over and over.
