איי לייק מייק (1961)

This romantic drama directed by Peter Frye is about the son of a millionaire Jewish family living in Texas who travels to Israel. On his way to the hotel in Tel Aviv after landing at the airport, the son Mike (Seymour Gitin) gets invited to spend some time with a cab driver's family. Before he has time to experience jet lag, the unwanted attentions of a female in the hotel send Mike packing. He ends up with the cabbie's family, a mixed group presided over by an authoritative matriarch (Batya Lancet). She sees no reason why one of her marriageable daughters should not hook up with this millionaire Mike, but Mike has already lost his heart to a model on a magazine cover -- quite a sticky wicket.

  • Basato su: I Like Mike

I Like Mike is a 1961 Israeli drama film directed by Canadian-born Peter Frye and co-written by him and Israeli playwright Aharon Megged. It was entered into the 1961 Cannes Film Festival. The film was based on Megged's 1956 play of the same name, which was performed at the Habima Theatre in Tel Aviv in 1957. The plot is a romantic satire on the American dream pursued by many Israelis and the phenomenon of adoration for wealth and social status, which sometimes comes at the expense of true love. An ambitious mother tries to match her daughter with a young American millionaire, but both young people are in love with others.
