About TimeI saw this movie as a little girl and I absolutely love it. This is the funniest movie, Ms. Gooch is the best, Vera is hilarious. I Couldn't wait to watch it..Score: 5/5

Life is a banquet......And most poor suckers are starving! That is my favorite quote of all time and is coined by Auntie Mame in this truly priceless comedy. This movie will forever be on my top ten list. This movie isn't a gut buster. I mean you'll laugh here and there, believe me and you'll smile all the way. But this movie draws you in. You become part of it. What makes this movie so great is that it touches you. You can't help but love Auntie Mame. I wish I had such an Aunt! As you watch this movie be sure to look at the artistry. The sets, the costumes, the camera work. This is a masterpiece! Rosalind Russell rules! I frequently do the Ping Pong routine. Classic! Just......well....top drawer! Damn! I wish I had an apartment like Beekman Place!.Score: 5/5

Fun and FunnyA must-watch film. The 50's humor transcends time to today very well. There are so many one-liners, you'll need to watch this film twice and write down a few. ''Child - how can you see with all that light?" The only drawback is that the anti-conservative message is ridiculously over-played, as is the Asian stereotype of the help. That part was, well, it was ghastly. It was just ghastly..Score: 5/5

The Best Progressive FilmWhen I was a child I remember loving this film wishing I had a aunt like Auntie Mame. As I got older and rewatched this film it had such taboos that I didn’t pickup on that are still present in today’s society. Like the progressive teacher and unwed mother to name a few. To sum up Auntie Mame I’ll use a direct quote from the movie. “Charmed Lord Dudley!..Score: 5/5

Only One MameThere is -- and there will always be -- only one Mame, and that is Rosalind Russell. Her rapid fire delivery as in "His Girl Friday" suits the wit of the brilliant screenplay perfectly. The only thing better than owning this film is to have seen it on Broadway with her in the starring role..Score: 5/5

Best Movie Ever!!!!!"Live, Live, Live. Life is a banquet and most poor suckers are starving to death" See if you can find this famous line in the movie!! Or, "Oh, Auntie Mame, I lived!" is another famously funny line. A must see movie, one that I absolutely love..Score: 5/5

The best!Funniest movie I've seen in years...hugely better than the Lucile Ball version!!!!.Score: 5/5

Der lebt sich gut bei seiner Tante und deren Freunden ein. Doch Patricks Vater hat seinen Nachlassverwalter damit beauftragt, dafür zu sorgen, dass Patrick auch Anstand und Disziplin lernt.

Pусский
Эксцентричная, яркая Мэйм Деннис усыновляет мальчика-сироту, обрушивая на него все манеры и стиль экстравагантных и чудаковатых персонажей 20-х и 30-х годов... Очень необычная и забавная работа художников и костюмеров 50-х годов. Голливуду пришлось признать, что актерский ансамбль Бродвея улучшить невозможно: то, как Расселл говорит, ее ритмика, акценты и паузы не могут быть другими, настолько все это безупречно.
