In Paris, teenagers (an American girl and a French boy) fall in love and befriend a shady old man. Lane is fine in her film debut as the sensitive child of a floozy of a mother (Kellerman) and an understanding stepfather (Hill). The characters and situations are rather clichéd but it is entertaining enough. While Lane parlayed this role into a long film career, Bernard (who plays the boy) retired after just two films. Olivier does little more than act pooped. The film doesn't really get going until the kids and Olivier embark on a journey to Venice. Director Hill vainly manages to insert clips of two of his films ("Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" and "The Sting").
