Barefoot in the Park
(1967)
Directed by Gene Saks
this film based on the play of the same name stars Robert Redford,
Jane Fonda, Mildred Natwick and Charles Boyer. The honeymoon period
is over as a newly wed young couple move into their first apartment
together.
The plot of this film
is a fairly standard romantic comedy which follows the usual rules
and features the plot points you would expect. On the comedy side
there are a couple of chuckles but this is not a riotously funny
film. Unlike many play to film adaptations this film does do a
slightly better job than usual of shifting the action away from all
being in one location.
3/5
