"But the truth is that Portugal's position could not have been otherwise."

Along comes the predictable blonde (Susan Hampshire) to scratch his seven-year itch. Her giddy giggle soon fills the sound track like a klaxon. The two go off on a picture-postcard tour of such out-of-the-way places as the Louvre, the Champs Elysées and the Tuileries, marking this second-rate souvenir "For export only." Aznavour's tragicomic twinkle shines through in such films as Shoot the Piano Player...
