There is little of note in this thematically provocative but cinematically dull combination of sex comedy and whodunit....apart from the novelty value of seeing the famously suave and classy leading man of the 1950s and 1960s Rock Hudson in what is possibly the sleaziest character of his entire career; even his mustache is dripping with sleaze! The show-stoppingly sexy Angie Dickinson (to quote a girl in the movie: "Wow! Dig that figure!") has a discreet nude scene and also appears in a skimpy white nightie; her character has no moral inhibitions, either. The influence of the French director Roger Vadim can be seen in the content of the movie, not in the form; it plays like a dirty TV movie. ** out of 4.
