The Lusty & Comical Adventures of Tom Jones

“Keeping the proceedings fast-paced and unpredictable, director Al D’Andrea exhibits an eye for detail and an ear for dialogue...an agreeable, often delightful treat, an enticing confection made up of equal parts of youthful love, lust and innocence, comedy smarts and an air of careless romanticism.”
