I’ve been looking for a girl every Saturday night of my life, says Marty Piletti (Ernest Borgnine). Yet, despite all his efforts, this 34-year-old Bronx butcher remains as shy and uncomfortable around women today as on the day he was born. So when he meets Clara (Betsy Blair), a lonely schoolteacher who's just as smitten with him as he is with her, Marty's on top of the world. But not everyone around him shares Marty's joy. And when his friends and family continually find fault with Clara, even Marty begins to question his newfound love until he discovers, in an extraordinary way, the strength and courage to follow his heart.

A romance about how an ordinary guy finally finds a woman. Who would have thought that something so simple would amuse me so much? Here, it's excellently shown that when the story is well-written, well-directed, and of course, excellently acted, something great comes out of it. Marty is an example of how a simple idea can work. I also finally got to see Ernest Borgnine in a great positive role.
