Synopsis
Come September (1961) is a Hollywood romantic comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Robert Mulligan — one year before To Kill a Mockingbird — and shot on location along the Italian coast, it stars Rock Hudson opposite Gina Lollobrigida.
New York millionaire Robert Talbot arrives at his Italian villa in July instead of September and finds that his business partner Maurice (Walter Slezak) has quietly been running it as a hotel in his absence. Among the current guests: a group of young American women and the boys pursuing them, including Bobby Darin chasing Sandra Dee. Meanwhile, Talbot's longtime girlfriend Lisa has started shopping for a new fiancé. Off-screen, Darin and Dee had just wed — their scenes together carry an ease that isn't acting.
Mulligan handles the farce with the same unhurried confidence he'd bring to Atticus Finch the following year. Light, sun-drenched and genuinely funny in places. Stream Come September online on iFILM.
