Director/writer Wishman has no flair for comedy, and star Sammy Petrillo has less: endless lame jokes, interspersed with completely gratuitous sex scenes, one of which is perhaps the most erotic Wishman's ever shot. The movie's theme ("Is there sex after marriage?") presumably was of concern to Wishman, who began her second marriage right around the time this was made, but there's none of her characteristic tension as everything is played (badly) for laughs.
A classic Wishman theme: male sexual insecurity plus female sexual desire (represented here by golden earrings) equals lots of violence. But somehow it's less intense than her earlier roughies, perhaps because of the larger cast or more frequent scene changes (invariably proceeded by "walking on the sidewalk" filler).
Ever watch a dull, plotless movie just to see naked women?
Director Doris Wishman is known for pushing genre conventions to the limit, and here she combines wall-to-wall T&A with a phenomenally predictable storyline and a stunningly silly ending. (A few naked men, too, but they're not the focus.) The unrelenting wholesomeness may be shocking if you're familiar with Wishman's later, far seedier work.
