That Funny Feeling

About This Movie

That Funny Feeling is a charming little gem from 1965 that captures the lightheartedness of a romantic comedy without getting too bogged down in melodrama. With Joan Howell at the center, you get this delightful mix of awkward situations and comedic misunderstandings, especially when she tries to hide her humble living situation from the suave Tom Milford. The pacing is quite breezy, making it easy to enjoy the playful banter and quirky characters. The practical effects are minimal but serve the story well, adding to that lovely mid-'60s New York vibe. The performances, especially from the leads, have this infectious energy that keeps you engaged throughout. It’s a film that speaks to class difference in a fun way, all while wrapped up in a romantic package.

That Funny Feeling isn’t the most mainstream title, which adds to its charm for collectors. It was released on various formats over the years, but the scarcity of early editions makes it a bit of a treasure hunt. Fans of vintage comedies often seek this out, not just for its lighthearted narrative but also for the window it provides into 1960s New York City. A decent find at conventions or online, but expect to pay a premium for well-preserved copies.
