It may not be enough to say that Julie Newmar is statuesque. Further hyperbole is probably needed, perhaps along the lines of "she defines statuesque" or "her picture is in the dictionary under statuesque." She is such a striking figure that she can basically carry a scene simply by walking around or striking a pose. That's good, because that's pretty much all that happened in this film.
The story could have been vaguely insulting but instead was just boring. I won't detail it as the one-line plot outline is more than sufficient. No layered meanings, no depth, not much of anything. The performers, saddled with such a story, seemed like they gave it a real try where most may have just phoned it in. That's a plus.
Recommended for Newmar fans only.
