Not good a good film.

This is not a good film to see after several hits of red bud. It will haunt you for years, and not in a good way. In many ways, it is similar to the Star Wars Christmas Special, but not really. Bea Arthur isn't in it, and maybe she should have been. Terry Thomas is a good actor, but doesn't the gap between his front teeth bother you? I know it bothers me.

There are probably better mid-70s, English t&a films to watch, but I wouldn't know of any off hand. I saw this about fifteen years ago on cable, after having come home from a night of heavy clubbing. I should have gone to bed, but no... I just couldn't look away once the thing started... all those braincells, wasted...

Sometimes the remake is better than the original.

Intended or not, the "Bawdy Adventures of Tom Jones" is a remake of 1963 film "Tom Jones" starring Albert Finney. I've found most remakes - My Man Godfrey, King Kong, Island of Dr. Moreau to name just three - to be vastly inferior to the originals but sometimes a different interpretation can result in a more enjoyable film. For example, the basic plot is the same but I like "Mogambo" (1953 - John Ford) much more than "Red Dust" (1932 - Victor Fleming).

I saw "the Bawdy Adventures of Tom Jones" years ago and thoroughly enjoyed the movie. Knowing it was a remake I expected to enjoy the original even more - after all "Tom Jones" won four Oscars. I was surprised when I found "Tom Jones" to be dull, lifeless, and boring compared to the remake; so much so that I changed the channel after about 15 minutes. Maybe I was a little harsh - perhaps "Tom Jones" wasn't supposed to be funny; a serious film looking at how an accident of birth affects opportunities in life rather than a fun movie exploiting the comedic possibilities - but if I had to recommend one version in your library it would be the remake, not the original.

Servant Girl: Oooh, Squire Western, you dirty old devil, Sir. And I thought you was asleep.
Squire Western: Did you now? Hey, don't struggle so, you know I've got a bad heart. And when I go, I want to die in bed.
Servant Girl: Not with me, you ain't!
Squire Western: Hmm, you're plump as a Christmas goose. And that's without the stuffing.
Servant Girl: Many a true word spoken in jest, Sir.
Squire Western: What do mean, girl?
Servant Girl: I hardly know how to say it, Sir. As you know, I'm a single girl, God-fearing and blameless.
Squire Western: Yes, yes, yes, go on.
Servant Girl: I'm with child!
Squire Western: What? Tell me who's pupped you and I'll make him wish he'd never been born.
Servant Girl: Careful of your heart, Sir.
Squire Western: Damn my heart! Give me his name. I'll make him wed you. Come along!
Servant Girl: T'was you, Sir!
Squire Western: Whaaat?
Servant Girl: T'is yours, Sir.
Squire Western: Oh, my heart!
Servant Girl: At Christmas, when you was giving out the presents. Oh, Sir, are you alright?
Squire Western: Yes. Yes, but best not to mention it again.
Servant Girl: What I am to do?
Squire Western: When the brat arrives, wrap him in a pudding cloth and place the bastard dumpling on the doorstep.
Servant Girl: Then what, Sir?
Squire Western: Then I'll deem that it's been left by providence and adopt it as my own.
Servant Girl: But the child, Sir. What life is there for a bastard child?
Squire Western: The best. Ha-ha! For i should know.
Servant Girl: Oh, were you one, Sir. I might have guessed.
Squire Western: Impudent, Hussy, certainly not. Put another log on the fire and listen to the tale I have to tell...
