CURRENT & CHOICE

The Reluctant Debutante. Rex Harrison and Wife Kay Kendall in a light-hearted peek at Mayfair manners and amorals (TIME, Aug. 18).

La Parisienne. Brigitte Bardot, leaning voluptuously on the sure comic talents of Charles Boyer and Henri Vidal, finally makes a film that is as funny as it is fleshy (TIME, July 28).
