A movie so bad, it's good., 2 February 1999
10/10
Author: eskridge from Houston, Texas

The Chapman Report, a thinly disguised take on the Kinsey Report, offers a chance to see four well-regarded actresses when they were young and bad -- especially Jane Fonda, before she learned to act.

The film is divided into the stories of four women, each with her own sexual problem. Fonda plays the frigid one, and she must've thought they said rigid. She barely moves.

Claire Bloom, who should have known better, plays a nymphomaniac and has to go mad. Shelley Winters is the bored housewife who has an unhappy affair and begs her lumpy husband to take her back. Can you imagine Shelley doing that? Glynis Johns comes off best in a (purposely) comic role of a screwball "experimenting" with a young stud.

The whole thing is ridiculous, but fun if you're in the right mood.
