"I always say you never really get to know a person till they put their clothes on." Carol Burnett says in the 1960s comedy Who's Been Sleeping in My Bed? After you're done laughing, if you really think about it, she does have a point.
This silly sex comedy is pretty entertaining, and I wasn't expecting much to begin with. I thought I might even turn it off, but I laughed all the way through. Dean Martin stars as a famous television actor who makes all the girls swoon - on and off the screen. When it's off the screen, things get quite complicated, because he often has to fend off the advances of his friends' wives and girlfriends. His own girlfriend, Elizabeth Montgomery, wants a commitment, but he's afraid they'll turn into all the other married couples who have affairs and complain the spark is gone.
All in all, if you like this subgenre, including flicks like Boys' Night Out and Come Blow Your Horn, you'll like this movie. You'll see lots of familiar faces, like Martin Balsam, Richard Conte, Jack Soo, Elliott Reid, Diane Foster, and Jill St. John. I did feel a little sorry for Carol Burnett in her theatrical debut, who gives an intentionally awkward and goofy striptease; just because she doesn't look at Elizabeth Taylor doesn't mean she should have to make fun of her appearance. But maybe I'm alone in that thought. In any case, I'll leave you with a fun laugh line: "If my sponsors find out I'm seeing a shrink, my show will be off the air faster than you can say Frank Sinatra." Dean says to his psychiatrist pal Martin.
