Culture clash - The World Ten Times Over review by LC
60's slice-of-life drama focusing on two 'working girls', and their relationships with a willfully ignorant father, and a would-be lover who wants one of the girls to quit her job and settle down. The acting is generally good, especially an understate performance from William Hartnell, and it's shot well enough - if there's a problem it's that the story doesn't really develop much over the course of its running time. A solid and watchable kitchen sink drama, and the central culture clash is fine, but ultimately it doesn't feel as if it goes anywhere.
