Never sure where its going next. (0 more)

Ends with a feeling of overall sadness for the characters (0 more)

Thought provoking, sentimental and sad

A wife struggles to deal with her grief over the death of her husband who drowned when they were on holiday. Years later she bumps into the doppelganger of her husband, her consequences of her actions shape the film and events afterwards.

Worth a watch, bittersweet film, portrayed so well you feel empathy for each character and how fleeting life is.

Also I wouldnt call this a comedy....more drama, romance, nostalgia and grief.

Light-as-a-feather comic fantasy is strikingly risque given it was made in the 1940s. A mermaid takes a short holiday in London (disguised as a woman confined to a wheelchair) and carves a swathe through the men she encounters, much to the indignation of their wives and fiancees.

Cheery stuff, with nice comic performances from Glynis Johns and Margaret Rutherford. Surprisingly suggestive as well - the male lead is clearly implied to be at it with the mermaid despite being a married man. Not at all meant to be taken seriously, but charming nevertheless.
