I read many of the positive and descriptive reviews, and very much appreciated them, but as an adult, the movie is dreadfully silly. I wish I would have seen it when I was a small child and I suspect I would have liked it. Now it's value is more of a historical piece. It doesn't seem long which is good and bad. Almost everything is abrupt, enforcing the silliness, but you wouldn't want it to go another minute. Strangely, I liked both the positive and negative reviews here (I read up to ten). One reviewer commented on how a prepubescent boy could not be infatuated with Bridgitte Bardot. Normally not, but it's not that unreasonable, and especially so given the ridiculousness of everything else in this comedy. My observation is that Bridgitte Bardot may not have been in sufficient media that a young boy in the US would have come across in the first place, which is far more strange. Infatuation with beauty of any kind is possible for a child of any age prone to being obsessed. Bottom line, it's a short, meaningless but likely fun story for a child, and some history for everybody else.
