I believe so many of the reviewers have lost the true fun of the film. Of course the character that Jules Dasson is a chowderhead without much in the way of character. He seems to see himself as a great reformer. When I first saw the film in 1950, I thought he was terrible, but seeing the film again I realize that the character must be this way to show the difference between him, and the people of Greece.
The fat whores in the very tight dresses were just wonderful. There chubby legs walking in time with the music to visit Mr. No Face was so very funny.
In heavens sake, don't take it so seriously; sit back relax and enjoy the wonders of Greece and this includes Illa and her friends.
