Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Schnitzler's cunning form from La Ronde blagged to display a group of daisy-chaining demi-mondaines indulging in ten kinds of rumpy-pumpy all over town. All vile stuff, of course, but as usual there is a certain recherché pleasure to be had from incidentals: 1. Sample dialogue: 'I am 18' - 'Yeah? And I'm Roman Polanski'. 2. A husband who decks his wife up in a moustache and makes talent from the local gay club have her on the sofa while he plays martial music on a baby grand. 3. Plato's Retreat: a place where Socratic dialogues take place in a sauna. 4. The NY skyline with a dirigible above it. Warning: the Surgeon General has determined that watching this film will give you herpes. CPea.Author: CPea
