...Assisted by good scriptwriting, they don't force humor, letting it come more naturally. And while she acts a bit juvenile at first, the author, Mrs. Clandon reaches dramatic equilibrium very quickly, playing her role with a convincing, concerned sternness. The romance between Valentine (Chris Duffy) and Gloria (Katherina Urso) is pat, and although Valentine is just one step beyond in some scenes, they manage to pull off a believable enough love affair in the short time alotted to their relationship...
