The Wild Affair (1965)

Review by Uriah43

The Wild Affair

4/10

Rather Odd and Uncoordinated

With only days before her marriage "Marjorie Lee" (Nancy Kwan) is an attractive 20-year-old woman who works as a lowly secretary at a marketing company in London. With only a few days before getting married she goes to the office one last time before settling down as a housewife. As it so happens this final day for her at work also includes the annual Christmas Party that afternoon as well. Realizing that this is their last opportunity-and in some cases aided by alcohol-several men decide to take a chance at possibly having a one-night stand with her while there is still time. On that note it should be mentioned that Marjorie has an alter-ego named "Sandra" who isn't nearly as inhibited and as a result their chances may have more success than they realize. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that I was somewhat disappointed with this movie overall. For starters, although Nancy Kwan put on a splendid performance, it seemed like her Asian qualities were being deliberately muted which, in my opinion, negates a valuable quality about her. Further, as a supposed comedy there really wasn't much humor here either. Likewise, the plot consisted of one hurried scene after another which gave the entire movie a rather odd and uncoordinated effect as well. In short, while this certainly wasn't a terrible movie by any means, it wasn't a particularly good film either and I have rated it accordingly. Slightly below average.
