User Reviews

Roman Holiday in Madrid

Marisol plays an Eastern European princess by day and rock n' roll babe by night. Mind you the kind of rock n' roll babe who plays in a club where the audience actually stops and listens to her brand of flesh and feather pop music.

This movie gives Marisol the opportunity for endless costume changes and varying wigs along with multiple boyfriends. It also serves as a satire of the eastern European monarchy film from a left wing source. It has a great sense of slapstick, continuity problems possibly stemming from shoddy editing.

Sloppy and fun with some great songs.
