Written and directed by Ranald MacDougall. I was wondering why a movie with Gina Lollobrigida as female lead was not well known. Then I saw it. It is not really awful, it is clumsy. It could have been—seen the subject—a Dahlesque (or better, with such colors, Sirkian) melodrama. But some cheap ending dialogues, a bad lead characterization for Franciosa, a general over-acting, a poor editing, and the very mediocre Adolph Deutsch's score make it more soapish than flamingly melodramatic. Anyway, more than Anthony Franciosa, Ernest Borgnine have a few great moments. And Gina's fans can have a go to it. She is not only beautiful (but she is, gosh, she is), she has also two or three scenes (especially the framing by the police, and the dance in the end) where she can show a lot. (But, whatever the title may have suggested you, she, er, don't go naked anywhere in the movie. It doesn't matter.) NB : le titre français est débile. -- Last edit: 2015-11-02 05:25:34 |
