Comically entertaining
4 November 2009
I got so excited that Robert Redford did a romantic comedy film with Jane Fonda. Barefoot in the Park was indeed very funny and very entertaining. The story was simple. All the matters with the characters slowly rise. We can see that Corie Bratter (Jane Fonda), from being lovely and cheerful goes arguing and hating his conservative, spoilsport husband Paul Bratter. It was really funny. Robert Redford amuses me the most. He had that accentuated aura that reminded me of "The Sting" and his role in "Butch Cassidy and Sudance Kid". Jane Fonda was particularly witty too in her character. The latest humorous movie I watched about her was "Monster in Law". It took me a little time recognize her character in Barefoot in the Park, because honestly I haven't watch too much yet of her old movies. I must admit however that the first part of the film wasn't too much captivating. It got me bored a little. But when I saw finally Corie arguing with Paul because of their differences and incompatible attitudes, it got me the extreme laughs ever. Truly this is one cute, comically entertaining film of the old times I've ever seen. Highly recommend it.
