@@CinemaCities1978 I really enjoyed the film very much----it was xsuch a refreshing change from the repetitive fare being dished out year after year by the Hollywood studios. I am disappointed that there has not been a sequel; they teased it, as you say, and I certainly was lookimg forward to seeing it. I would just like to add that the first supermodel may have been Jean Shrimpton herself. She was promintent in fashion photographs from the early 60s on, and famously appeared at a fancy race meeting in a miniskirt, causing consternation and making headlines! This was in 1963, and she certainly helped to popularize that very iconic 60s garment early on in the decade. She epitomized the "English look" which became the rage everywhere at the time.
I'm a mad fan for film scores and musical soundtracks. This flick has an exceptional soundtrack (meaning I particularly like it). It starts out with a Roberta Flack song from the early 70s, but hey, with art it's all about what works. I'm a mule-headed old fart so I still collect CDs, and this is one I still listen to frequently. And I agree, the scene with the guy discovering a delicious dinner basket in a laborer's truck and a grand pop song on the radio...it makes me want to up my game.
I don’t understand how this movie didn’t do well financially. So much more sophisticated than the campy Kingsman franchise. It’s still one of my favourite movies to date, so beautiful to watch.
I don't either. It's really a great, smart and stylish piece of filmmaking. I was really holding out hope for a sequel, but I fear that ship has sailed.
This is one of my favorite films with regards to fashion. My wardrobe is a pretty much made up of pieces that have that mid to late 60s vibe so this movie is one of my touchstones.
I remember watching TMFU when I was a kid! Loved all the spy shows back then. Had a crush on David McCallum😊 When I first heard about the film, I thought, "Nope, won't watch it", seeing this story: I need to find this.😅😅fickle movie fan I am..lollol. Great story, thank you!!
I loved this movie!! I left the theater grinning and then I couldn’t believe it wasn’t more popular :( so bummed we won’t get a sequel, especially with the whole armmie hammer debacle
Do it! I love the 60s mash up style of this movie, especially the mini dresses. The fashion in the film inspired me to buy some 60s style dresses and sunglasses.
Nice to have a look back at this now. Saw a few episodes from the TV series. Unfortunately, Vietnam was on my doorstep, and that of many others. Sort of blotted out this cultural period as it was happening. Years later I saw Blow Up, another good vehicle for the fashions of those times.
Vinciguerra (vinchiguera) italian means win the war. I liked the movie, this is how id like the new Bond movies to look. More glam and style and less doom and gloom
I was getting a 1960's suit fitted years back and said to my tailor "I would like it to fit tightly." His response was "Tight or Illya Kuryakin tight?"
I love this. I really disliked the film, I was a fan of the show as a child and I wanted something else. However, your video here gave me a new appreciation for it. The fashion here is on point, and your historical contextualisation is well researched and perfectly thrown together. A real treat of a back issue! 😊👍🎬
I used to watch reruns of the show with my dad so I was expecting something completely different as well. I think this film is a case where style overrides substance but it works out. It’s just really cool and I want all the clothes and I want to be in Italy in the 60s. 😂
Forgive me, but I must disagree re the world's first supermodel; it's generally agreed upon that it's Lisa Fonssagrives who should have that title. Her career started in the 1930s and went into the 1950s. Evelyn Nesbit (whose name I know you know!) could also claim it. I guess it depends on how one defines the term.
I was so pissed it wasn't getting the attention it deserved that I saw it 3 times in the theater--an extreme rarity for me.
Me too! Also, any time I happen to come across it airing on television I always end up watching to the end. I really hope we do get a sequel.

@@lalkayy.9541I second that and agree with you 💯
I love the 60s fashion/films. The women were so beautiful and the men so dapper.
I wish those styles would come back, I'd gladly dress like the women in this film.

I play that song from the truck, "Che vuole questa musica stasera" a lot, especially when I'm making dinner.

That was fun to watch. Man from Uncle is so underrated!
It definitely is underrated! I hope we eventually get a sequel.

I saw it and adored it. I work in fashion and collect vintage pieces from 1940s-90s, so this was heaven!

I've seen the movie 4 times. I'm so I love with the fashion n music in man from U.N.C.L.E.
I really love this movie. It makes me want to visit 1960s Italy and wear really amazing clothes. 😂

It's a very stylish and fun ride. I think the show is 100% better, but the movie has a great vibe.

Loved your review!
Thanks so much!
i am really tempted to change my wardrobe and dive into this vibe

A sequel was considered
But due to the poor box office performance
No investor's were found
That's too bad. Now it's definitely too late.
I thought you were very generous in your critique. I didn't think it worked.
