Love Is a Ball (1963)


United Artists
Directed by David Swift
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, MGM Limited Edition Collection)

Matchmaker Charles Boyer has an elaborate plan to get a clumsy Grand Duke from Spain together with a spoiled American heiress. The only problem is that she falls in love with loner Glenn Ford instead. It all takes place among the rich and beautiful people of the Cote d'Azur. Ford is miscast as the older man falling for the younger platinum blonde, a far cry from his usual western role, though his ship is named the "Saddle Tramp".
