...another on the road to fame in Hollywood. The direction by Skin Flick Impresario Russ Meyer (TIME, June 13, 1969) is full of sexual innuendo of the kind that might impress a lickerish Boy Scout. The script, by Chicago Film Critic Roger Ebert, will surely tickle those who prefer their dialogue with comic-book balloons around it. The movie is just a lark-a big camp, don't you see-but many people may not see, and those who do will probably not care...

Beethoven and Bach prefer to have me seated at the table with pencil and paper; then they give me the key, the timing, the left hand and the right hand...
