This Movie Is Truly Unique
2 February 2023
This movie is unique and ahead of its time in so many ways. For 1972 this candid and funny look at various aspects of sexuality is fun to watch. It is an anthology of different tales covering topics such as, "Do Aphrodisiacs Work", and "Why Do Woman Have Orgasms". The various skits feature a stellar cast in skits taking place at various locations, in a variety of time periods. The candid talk about sexuality is progressive and fun; however, there are elements that would probably not hold up in today's environment. The sketch about whether Transvestites are Homosexuals is funny, but would never be able to be made today-perhaps that is what I like about it. The sketch with the late John Carradine as a mad sexual scientist was my favorite. There are notable gags, lines, and visuals that made this a classic. While Allen progressed into more romantic comedies, these films helped boost his notoriety worldwide.
