...implication that somehow Munson got his license and ratings in an indecent hurry just isn't valid. This isn't too fast."

This film is so lavish, so long (2 hr. 20 min.) and so overstuffed with talent that one at first expects an epic of Homeric proportions.

...Lake Geneva's Sugar Shack, a spacious, somewhat rundown nightspot, there is runway action thrice nightly. For a $4 cover charge and a two-drink minimum, a female customer can catch a 1-hr. 45-min. show-and usually a pinch of beefcake too, if she feels the urge. The revue begins with Guy Garrett, 24, a former construction worker who parades onstage dressed in a white satin vest and glittery pants. Gyrating to the blast of disco music, he invites women to help him unzip, and for a close he allows a giggling...
