Summary
Continuing his 1970s recreations of classical Hollywood genres and styles, Peter Bogdanovich turned to the literary costume drama with an adaptation of the Henry James novella *Daisy Miller*. At a Swiss spa, upper-class expatriate American Frederick Winterbourne (Barry Brown) meets pretty, nouveau riche flirt Daisy Miller (Cybill Shepherd); her bratty, xenophobic little brother Randolph (James McMurtry); and her tremulous, nattering mother (Cloris Leachman). Voted one of the Top Ten Films of 1974 by **National Board of Review, USA**. *"... A love story to which Cybill Sherpard and Barry Brown lend an exact and definitive charm." - Jesu
