The newlywed couple Deborah (Carroll Baker) and Marcel (Jean Sorel) is spending honeymoon in Europe and Deborah asks to visit his hometown Geneva. While watching a show, Marcel sees his former friend Philip (Luigi Pistilli), who tells him that Marcel's former love Suzanne Boileau (Evelyn Stewart) has committed suicide, and blames him. Marcel explains to Deborah that the wealthy Suzanne gave him money in the past to pay his debts and to travel to the United States and he has never returned to her. Then he met the wealthy Deborah in New York and married her. Now he wants to visit Suzanne's parents to know whether he is the guilty for her suicide. They find an abandoned house where mysterious things happen and Deborah is threatened by phone. They travel to Nice to forget the incidents and Deborah rents an isolated manor for them. The only neighbor is the voyeur painter Robert Simack (George Hilton) that shows interest on Deborah. Out of the blue, she is threatened again and she uses tranquilizer pills and Marcel goes to the police.
"The Sweet Body of Deborah" is a romantic-thriller with a great tourism in Europe, showing beautiful locations and landscape. The lead couple Carroll Baker and Jean Sorel shows excellent chemistry while traveling in Europe with many sexy scenes. The pace is slow most part of the film, but the twists in the end are worthwhile, despite the flaws. My vote is seven.
