Having Wonderful Time, directed by Alfred Santell, is a delightful blend of comedy and romance, set against the backdrop of the Catskill Mountains. You’ve got Teddy Shaw, this office girl looking for a break from the city grind, and her charming encounter with Chick Kirkland. The pacing feels just right, leisurely enough to soak in the camp atmosphere but still keeps you engaged. The performances are lighthearted, with a nice chemistry that feels genuine. I appreciate the practical effects used, which add a tangible quality to the whimsical moments. The film encapsulates that era’s charm, with some great dialogue that still resonates today. It’s got this vintage vibe that’s hard to resist, drawing you into its era with every scene.
Great representation of 1930s camp cinema.Appealing performances from the leads.Interesting look at romantic escapism in the era.
