Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Pete and Dud's update of the Faust legend is a hit-and-myth affair in which diminutive cook Dud, finding his love for waitress Eleanor Bron unrequited, attempts suicide and is offered seven wishes in return for his soul by the devilish Pete. Good fun sometimes but a little too sketchy, with a plot that is almost as threadbare as the outfit worn by the voluptuous Raquel Welch in her cameo role as one of the Seven Deadly Sins - need one add which?.Author:
