Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaItems in the NYT incorrectly identified the film as singer Bobby Darin's cinematic debut as Darin had previously appeared in Pepe (1960). On set, he met and fell in love with co-star Sandra Dee, and the two quickly married in early Dec 1960. Their experience on Come September (1961) was depicted in the Bobby Darin biography Beyond the Sea (2004).

- Quotes
Lisa Helena Fellini: How could I be that stupid? You're wealthy, good-looking, intelligent, charming! I should have known better than to get mixed up with someone like that.
Robert L. Talbot: You're not making any sense.
Lisa Helena Fellini: I don't have to make sense. I'm Italian!

Typical Sixties Romantic Comedy
Come September contains few surprises in that it's a light comedy that represents its time (1961). You get the expected romantic complications, misunderstandings, scheming, and a suitable resolution. No drama here; you know how it will all turn out. But that's okay. When you watch a comedy like Come September, you would be disappointed if it didn't follow formula.
Come September has a few things to recommend it. All the actors do a fine job. Rock Hudson is the focus of the film and he holds it together. Gina Lollabrigida is sexy and funny; she plays her part with spirit.
In addition, the scenery--shot along the Italian Riviera--is beautiful. The villa where the story unfolds is perfect as the vacation home of a rich American businessman.
To top it off, in what other film do you get a joke about a drunken parakeet?
