Member Rating:  
The disarming comedy A Little Romance features Diane Lane as a 13-year-old American, living in Paris with her businessman stepfather (Arthur Hill) and her promiscuous mother (Sally Kellerman). Mom is currently enamored with pretentious-filmmaker David Dukes, and it is on the set of Dukes' latest picture that Lane meets another 13-year-old, insatiable French film buff Thelonious Bernard. A likeable street-smart petty thief and gambler, Bernard is instantly attracted to Lane. With the help of roguish old Laurence Olivier, Lane and Bernard arrange a romantic rendezvous under the Bridge of Sighs in Venice. Naturally, when the kids disappear it's a cause for international concern, but all ends as it should. Some of the best moments in A Little Romance belong to Broderick Crawford, unselfconsciously playing "himself" at a movie party. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    It was cute to see Diane Lane in her first movie. I am a fan of hers. She still has the same facial expressions. The movie was cute and had humor. It was worth seeing. I enjoyed it.

    Very French in spirit, this is a wonderful tale of first love, and beautiful Paris of the late 70's. Plus you get to see the magnificent Sir Laurence Olivier. Oh yes. A great film to see!
