...picture's plot, though much rearranged, is still essentially Shaw. Epifania Ognisanti di Parerga (Loren), heiress to a vast industrial domain, buys a husband, buys a divorce, buys a lover (Dennis Price). She is therefore astounded to discover that money cannot buy her the man she really wants, a humble Hindu medic (Sellers) who informs her mildly that he is "married to science," requires no mistress, and desires only "to be of some benefit to mankind." She offers him her body. He merely observes: "What an entirely perfect trapezius you have." In the end, though, she asks...
