Road to Salina (1969)
Director: Georges Lautner
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
A complicated little epic, told in flashback, concerning a rather sinister case of mistaken identity being imposed by Rita Hayworth and her screen daughter (tubby, snub-nosed Farmer) on an itinerant stud (Walker). In explaining just why this should be, the film gets through incest, a very unconvincing murder or two, a few flashes of rather unattractive genitalia, and a fair bit of sexual grumbling and grunting. As an excuse for the odd flash of tit and prick, well, better skinflicks have been made for less than a sixth of what Joe Levine must have coughed up to produce this.Author:
