"Tom Jones" is a hilarious romp through 1700s upper-crust gentrified England. Tom Jones, played by a VERY young Albert Finney, is a foundling raised by a country squire. All attempts to raise him in a proper tight-ass Puritanical education and so-called "holy" life failed miserably -- Tom Jones is just a creature of pleasures of the flesh. Susannah York, also deliciously young, is wonderful as the proper -- but horny -- beautiful epitome of true love.

Can her beauty, love, and virtue make a gentleman out of Tom Jones? Sorry -- no spoilers here, except to say that Hugh Griffith, the noted Welsh actor, portrayed a drunken sot neighbor and the father of Sophie Western, the character portrayed by Susannah York. True fact: Griffith was nominated for a Best Supporting Actor for his role, and he should have won, but it was film-making type-casting -- Griffith was rip-roaring drunk nearly all of the time. No wonder he was so terrific!

This was one of my favorites as a very young kid of 9 when it came out, and while it's a bit bawdy for kids (or one would HOPE these days), it is hilarious. The erotic eating scene, done with no dialogue for several minutes, was marvelous. As one who has won a Best Screenplay competition, I know how difficult it is to describe scenes such as this -- everything must be SHOWN, not Told in expository fashion. I once wrote a 3 minute 40 second undressing scene that is unmistakably erotic, yet no flesh is shown. My son, a young teenager at the time, padded upstairs in his stocking feet, and while I listened to the music to which the scene was set and concentrated on the undressing, he was reading over my shoulder. "DAD! You're such a perv!" he squawked. "No, Ian," I countered. "A perv would describe a guy smearing a female mannequin with mayonnaise." Guess I did it well, for that was the script that won out over two OTHERS I wrote that also made the finals.

Tom Jones is brilliant ensemble acting, with well-defined characters, proper character arc, blah blah blah -- AND is funnier than hell all the way through. Watch for Joan Greenwood, who portrays a wealthy Londoner looking to make our Tom her gigolo. Her distinctive elegant upper-class accent will be recognized by fans of the 1960 sci-fi classic "Mysterious Island," as the shipwrecked Lady Mary Fairchild. Enjoy a true film classic!
Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2003
I saw this in the theatre when it was first released, and the passage of time has done nothing to dim my love and fascination of this superb translation of the novel by Fielding. Of course, Albert Finney made a very dashing Tom Jones, and wqas so perfectly suited to the role; Susannah York great as his true love, Sophie, and the other roles, Hugh Griffith as Sophie's father, and hilarious in his part as a drunken, boisterous, lusty squire, and Dame Edith Evans as his rather disapproving, but very funny sister, reprimanding him with a trilling "Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrother...." while he is wrestling some country maidens in the haystacks, straw in his hair and a pack of bulldogs surrounding him. The dinner scene with him eating a roast chicken with great gusto, so much so that he harangues Sophie with pieces of it in his nose, is delightful, as is his unscripted departure from Squire Allworthy's residence, on his horse, and turning so tightly that the horse rears and collapses with Hugh Griffith on top of him...so funny Richardson wisely decided to keep it in the film.
I also appreciated the performances of David Warner, as the disgustingly priggish tutor, Mr. Bliful, and Diane Cilento (once married to Sean Connery...) as Tom's sometime paramour. The entire cast is excellent, including Joan Greenwood as the predatory older woman after Tom at any cost. Watch for the Masquerade Ball and see Hugh Griffith in his elephant mask; what a great scene!
The peripheral players are superb, as is the setting of London in the eighteenth century, with the deplorable lack of sanitary conditions and the terrible poverty. The music is haunting, the scene at the Inn (yes, the food scene, of course, one of the more outstanding in the movie) but also the frenetic byplay of the characters winding up in each other's beds with different wives and lovers, it is such a classic melange of humor, drama and near tragedy, there simply isn't one moment of bad film or minute of tedium...you will be absorbed all the way through, and enjoy this rambunctious, joyful frolic with Tom and his supporting cast of finely drawn characters. One last comment: The scene of Tom and Sophie, running, taking turns rowing a boat and falling in love on the grounds of her father's estate, is absolutely beautiful; watch for the scene of them picking blossoms and Sophie laughing and the blossoms falling into her mouth; very sensual and exquisitely detailed, as is the entire production.

This classic movie introduces Albert Finney to the world in 1966, and it left an indelible impression on this then sixteen year old. Finney is cast at the center of a festive romp with clever and richly drawn characters engaged in a Shakespearean mix-up of identities and motivations all culminating in the world being set right at the end. I wanted my own copy of this film, to introduce others to it, yet found it essentially "out of print". Still, it's hard to recommend the version being sold by this vendor. Yes, the labeling and packaging, all in Spanish make clear that it's a foreign copy, but unfortunately the quality of both Video and audio is very poor. The evening, night and subtly lit scenes are rendered so dark as to be virtually unintelligible. The excessive contrast softens in the day-lit scenes but its clear that this is a poorly engineered rip of either a VHS tape or perhaps a bootleg DVD copy. Its unfortunate that for whatever reasons this classic film has disappeared from the canon so my four star rating is for the film alone but the quality of the media is two stars at best.

You will laugh yourself sick at several scenes in this movie - why can't Hollywood make 'em like this anymore?

5.0 out of 5 stars Great fun, and literary, too
Reviewed in Canada on November 16, 2013
This was a big hit in the 1960s. Movies were part of the British invasion, less remembered now than the pop music. Director Tony Richardson treats a 200-year-old English classic with the saucy irreverence it deserves. In the 18th century, which was at least as licentious as ours is today, Joseph Fielding wrote a comic novel about a naive but horny young man called Tom Jones and his adventures in high society. The book was a hit. Richardson, Albert Finney and a supporting cast of brilliant character actors perfectly capture the spirit of those times, and their own, the Sixties. He used stop action, had Finney speak directly to the audience, and telescoped a lot of narrative into quick vignettes. The result is pure fun, with great costumes and historical sight gags. Only drawback is that I got a disk with some flaws.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tom Jones
Reviewed in Italy on December 9, 2013
Un grande film di Toni Richardson: un film "in costume" (come quello su Balaclava ma ancora migliore se possibile). Un infante viene trovato nella camera da letto del Signore; una serva e il suo amante vengono mandati via mentre il neonato viene cresciuto dal Signore stesso. La sorella si marita e il figlio nato dal matrimonio cresce tutti diverso dal giovane Tom Jones.
Le peripezie aumentano tra i vezzi di una popolana e l'amore della giovane figlia di un ottuso grande vicino. Poi aumentano ancora: Tom deve andarsene di casa (con 500 sterline che perde immediatamente). La complicata situazione si fa ancora piu` complessa e alla fine il povero Tom viene condannato a morte. Ma viene salvato all'ultimo istante.

Non parlo dell'immensa quantita` di storie che passano sullo schermo: vi diro` soltanto che il film e` straordinario: se ne gode a puntino ogni istante. Una vera delizia. Interpreti d'eccezione.
