Terrible film. Tuesday Weld is wonderful and gorgeous as ever and her performance is truly effective. But Rowdy McDowell is just terrible. He's about ten years too old for the role and his mannered, British satirical style is entirely in opposition to the material. They needed someone sexy, charismatic, and anarchic. The story hinges on it Young Jack Nicholson comes to mind. But with an overacting prig at the center of it, the whole thing collapses within minutes. I struggled to get through it and finally game up. I bought it because someone recommended it as this sexy, funny film, but it's anything but. The 60s were littered with little movies like this, now all but forgotten and for good reason. Avoid at all costs.
