So I re-watched this film again today after finding an English well dubbed version.
The film is well paced, plenty of naked flesh, some mad stunts (sledding on suitcases!), nice music, obviously the stunning back drop of the Alps and a pretty decent story.
The story contains all the stereo typical characters, hero in love with disapproving bosses daughter, a frustrated bride, a group of girls learning from ski instructors, both on and off the slopes.
And yes there is the rich slime ball who can't get a girl and pays the hero for a date that is not what he wanted. Even that in the end works out better than he could of imagined.
One star dropped as those Alps (the mountains, not the girls) kept switching between White and green.
Clearly there is no deep meaning here, just young people enjoying nature and each other. A lot of innocent fun.

In 1979 Message in a Bottle hit No. 1 in the UK. The Police were rich. Andy and Sting went out and bought Mood Taurus foot pedals, Stew daddy bought a 8mm video camera.
The pictures from that camera are the basis for this glorious tribute to the band that inspired me over 40 years ago to learn to play guitar, bass, keyboards, hell play and understand music.
The liner notes in my DVD say Stewart put this together only for the the extended band originally, Andy, Stingo, Danny, Jeff, Tam et al.
Stewart's derangements of the songs is a total delight and foreshadows many of his later projects.
And anyone who loves live music must love all The Police.
If there is 1 minor downside, for us fanatics, the chronology is a little suspect.
But the biggest band from the best seat in the house.
Cannot go wrong.
RIP Ian Copeland and Kim Turner.

During and after Alive 2 Kiss lost of Peter Criss and Ace Frehley.
Kiss had lost their way. Drummer Eric Carr (RIP) and Vinnie Vincent injected new life into Paul and Gene.
Vincent played on 2 albums Creatures and Lick it Up. However for reasons beyond my knowledge he left.
The Creatures tour was a failure, Lick it Up tour faired much better.
So this is from their next tour Animalize. Not as good an album as either Creatures or Lick it. But the show was top notch. Gene, Paul and Eric now had Bruce Kulick as lead guitarist (brother Bob had played some earlier Kiss tunes.)
If you like the music of Kiss, it does not get much better than this. So
Lick it Up.
