Viewing Notes

Revisited this film via TCM bc initially thought I had t seen it but of course I did and didn’t care for it then and don’t care for it now. Just not into Lolita type stories as they kinda gross me out. Sure Debbie Reynolds is great but seeing her fawn all over a man more than twice her age is serious cringe.
