Title: four stars for being boldly dweadful
Product review: I remember seeing this when it was originally released, mainly to see Bette Davis in anything and also to see Susan Hayward in one of her midlife scenery-chewing roles. Add to this Joey Heatherton (her generation's Pia Zadora, Steve Guttenberg, or Paris Hilton)! What I recall with relish was Pauline Kael's scornful review, singling out the vision of Davis sitting in what Kael considered the ugliest chairs imaginable, reciting the line, "Somehow the world has lost all its taste!" Watch the "breakfast squabble" scene, in which the editing causes a glass of orange juice to perform calisthenics. Great fun, if overpriced by the amazon vendors.
