Sevistigimiz Gunler is a typical socio-economic story of three roommate girls in their early 20s' who are hoping to find their Prince Charmings. With a lot of references to Billy Wilder romance flicks, writer/director Halit Refig who is one of the best in early Yesilcam Cinema, tells a lesson of relationships in a humorous and playful way. The biggest factor what makes this film to stay in the list of '60s memorable Yesilcam Cinema, is the quality story-editing work of Orhan Elmas, over Bulent Oran's original screenplay.
This film is unique in its content development ideas. And those ideas give significant social messages at the end of the run. The run is all about a bet of the three girls laying off against each other promising that whoever falls in love with a boy pays the monthly rent of the house they share together. Things go crazy and wild, and even Wilder(!), when they both fall in love with three men. So their lives change dramatically as they forget about the bet, and come on the edge of marriage and pregnancy. But are the men whom they fell in love with, really worth considering as Prince Charmings, or are they just cheaters slickers? Perhaps it's about the time the girls should realize that they are all grown up fast to find out that there is no such thing as Prince Charming.
