“Comedy sailing to a new high!”
Based on The Hand and the Flower a novel by Jerrard Tickell A Day to Remember stars Stanley Holloway as Charley Porter captain of London darts team. When the team travels to the French town of Boulogne for the annual darts tournament a good time is had by all--and more besides. Jim Carver one of the team's members is reunited with a little French girl he'd befriended during the war who has now developed into a beautiful young woman. And Fred Collins makes a poignant journey to the hotel where he'd honeymooned with his late wife. The film works best as a low-key comedy-drama; it is least successful when it ventures into O. Henry territory and strains for "surprise" story twists. ~ Hal Erickson Rovi
