Not much happens in this movie. Dinette Dusty (Barbara Harris) together with Loyal Muke (Robert Blake) travels in a car across America, together with three minor children. Dialogue, talk, and talk again, and dialogue again, the whole movie. Barbara Harris is sweet, both as an actress and as a character. Robert Blake is good in a drunken idiot role. It's not a comedy at all and it's extremely long (1 hour and 42 minutes) for what is offered to us on the screen, that is, almost nothing. The "pillar" of the film is obviously the super-talented Barbara Harris, great expert in the art of improvisation, a perfect actress, the kind who can make you laugh or cry just by reading the phone book. At 45, Barbara Harris looks like a maximum 30-year-old beautiful doll, with a delicious voice and charming eyes. Those 2 stars are only for her! To make a good movie, you need a cool story. And this production has nothing like that. But the music is beautiful.
