Spoiler Alert
I think i'm all alone here, but i The Yellow Rolls Royce is my favorite Ingrid bergmen film. again i think i'm alone when i say widowed Diplomat Gerta Millett is her sexiest role, even though she was 48 when she played it.
the one disappointment was that it wasn't a full feature film, instead the the third in a series of short stories involving the yellow Rolls and its owners. Ingrid was an attractive femininely dressed American Diplomat opposed to the War in Europe in the early days of WW2. then she meets freedom fighter Omar Sharif and sees first hand the horrors of war, which changes her political views.
in helping Omar, she changes her feminine image for something more tomboyish as she drives his men to his fortress in the hills. she also falls for him and though Ingrid is over 20-yrs-older, it's hard to spot the large difference.
it did occur to me that Ingrid and side kick Joyce Grenfel could have reprised their roles for an adventure series which sees them in high level political settings and mixing it up with getting involved in dangerous situations near enemy lines.
