Summary: One of Disney's sophisticated movies
Comment: When I was a little girl - I didn't fully appreciate this film as much as I do now. The reason for doing so was that, I loved the more romantic & old fashioned life action movies, that Disney is well known for, such as such as "Pollyanna" & "Summer Magic". But over the years, I have grown fond of this movie and now it is one of my very favourite Disney movies to watch. Unfortunately, I have not yet read the novel on which the movie is based on, so all I can remark on is the film itself. The locations used for the film are exotic and the music used in the film fits both the tone of the movie and adds to the Greek atmosphere, although the title song "The Moon Spinners" used at the beginning of the film could be viewed as a bit much. All of the actors are superb in their respective roles; including Hayley Mills; Peter MeEnery; and Eli Wallach (who is, at times, unnerving in his role as the villian Stratos). This is definitely a film for not only Disney fans, but for anyone who loves a good romantic mystery.

Summary: Still Enjoying
Comment: Saw this movie (more then once!) in the theater when first released and thought it was great. Ordered one for my family and one for my brother's family when I realized it was on DVD. It is still a pleasure to watch, and a good one for the family!

Summary: Hayley Mills fans
Comment: Grew up on Disney and Hayley Mills, so this is a "comfort" trip back in time. First class actors including one from the silent era. The plot moves right along to the usual Disney implausible resolution.

Summary: Moon Spinners
Comment: I have not seen this movie since I was a young teenager. I found that I forgot the biggest part of the plot. Happily, it was like watching the movie for the first time.
I have been a Haley Mills fan since my pre-teenage years to this date. For those who are not familiar with Haley MIlls and her movie credits I strongly recomend renting/buying her movies starting with Pollyanna. The viewer will not be disappointed I'm sure.

Editorial Reviews:

Start with a fortune in stolen jewels. Add a dash of danger. A pinch of romance. Season with Hitchcock-like intrigue and comic flair. What do you have? A mystery thriller for the whole family ... with the Disney touch. Set against the sun-bleached beauty of the Isle of Crete, the story pits a young English tourist (Hayley Mills) against a wily Greek jewel thief (Eli Wallach). Mistaken identities and perilous escapes -- including a nail-biting battle with a windmill -- lead the junior-miss detective to a final confrontation aboard the yacht of an eccentric millionairess (Pola Negri) with a passion for priceless gems and pet cheetahs!
