...Larita, the exotic American divorcée who sends her new upper-crust English in-laws into fits, Biel is more than just a pretty face. She's funny and poised, rather than simply posed, as so often is the result when directors are confronted with someone who makes everyone else look like mutton.

After walking over a "magic carpet" to enter, you could go to the "harem"-themed library. Or, just head straight for the relatively empty dining hall to swing dance or the packed upper common room to grind on your date. And everyone else standing near...
