5.0 out of 5 stars That sly little french thing! December 28, 2004
Format:DVD
This is a wonderful movie!

Starring Sandra Dee, Bobby Darin, Micheline Presle, John Lund, and more!

This movie begins with Chantel (Dee) she is a girl who likes men, probably inherited from her very french mother who was in show business in Paris.

She knows all the secrets to a happy marriage, sly tricks, and everything. So when the whole family is suddenly transfered to New York for the fathers (Lund) job. There Chantel meets Eugene (Darin) the photographer, who has his own "views" on marriage. And he loves being a bachelor, that is until Chantel slyly changes all thise views, with her mothers help, of course.

So, the couple are married. But now Chantel has to keep Gene interested.

Which she has trouble with at first, that is until Chantels mother gives her the 'giude to a happy marriage' which she says worked wonderfully with her father! And when Chantel looks down she is horrified that the book is called How to Train a Man's Best Friend!!

She is disgusted!

Until she starts to use it, and finds out iy works wonderfully!

And everything goes wonderfully until...

This is a GREAT movie! Henry Levin does a completely wonderful job, and I advise you not to waste a minute in seeing it!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally! July 7, 2004
By A Customer
Format:DVD
I saw this movie when it first came out and I loved it then. The story centers around a woman who marries the love of her life but is concerned about keeping him interested. Her mother, a French woman, instructs her on the art of "keeping your man happy" by giving her a book on dog training. All this works very well until he finds out that he's being trained!
The main stars of the film are Sandra Dee, Bobby Darin, and Stephanie Powers. I definitely would recommend this film and That Funny Feeling - both with Bobby Darin and Sandra Dee.
These films are great examples of the comedies of the sixties.

5.0 out of 5 stars Farewell to a great beauty and a lovely lady February 20, 2005
Format:DVD
CNN and other news networks have announced the sad news that our beloved Sandra Dee has died this morning at 6:00 a.m. of complications of kidney disease and pneumonia. She was with her son, Dodd Darin, who made the announcement to the press some hours later.

For those of us who admired her work in films, this is a sad day indeed. She was "before my time" but I never saw a Sandra Dee picture I didn't love. She was a child model, and a teen star, and she married the pop singer Bobby Darin while still carving out her own screen career, so perhaps she wasn't lucky in her own life, since she seemed to have grown up too fast and to have missed the normal life of the child, but we her fans were extremely lucky. We got to thrill with her as the first girl surfer in GIDGET, and to root for her against her selfish mother in the second version of IMITATION OF LIFE, and to cry a little as she romanced Troy Donahue and "went all the way" in the majestically corny A SUMMER PLACE. And so many other films, good and bad.

A few years back she and Troy Donahue made a personal appearance at the Castro Theater here in San Francisco, where she seemed frail, but happy to greet the hordes of fans who poured in from all over the country to thank her for the decades of pleasure her cinematic legacy has given us. She even sang a little bit of that ironic song from GREASE that mocked her virginal image, "Look at me, I'm Sandra Dee!" She was in fine form that night, and signed autographs and posed for photos until she begged off due to fatigue.

IF A MAN ANSWERS may not be one of her best movies, but it shows her considerable comic abilities, and if she was ever happy at all, it might have been during this period when she was often teamed alongside her then-husband, and both seemed to be sitting on top of the world. Alas, today a little light went out of the world but I know that tonight, I'll look up into the night sky and I'll see a pale new star, directly overhead, with the luminous intensity that was Sandra Dee's alone.
