Title: Shake it up, baby
Review: Yowie! Here's one perfectly awful movie. It is watchable, however, and is enjoyable from the standpoint of it being rather ridiculous. The casting, for one thing, is bizarre. Having Ava Gardner cast as Lorne Greene's daughter, when in real life she was actually 2 years OLDER than him, is laugh-out-loud funny. And then there's bad toupe-wearing Charlton Heston, cast as Gardner's husband, who has little time for his wife but plenty of time for his French-accented lover (whose name I don't even want to attempt to spell right now; just look at the credits). Right-wing nut Heston isn't exactly Moses in this, is he? Evangelist Marjoe Gortner (remember him? You don't? It's just as well) plays a wacko (how fitting) who tends to get on people's nerves (especially the audience's). This is enjoyable schlock courtesy of Universal Pictures, who also gave us all those lousy Airport movies. If that sounds appealing, go for it.
