IMDB
In 1961, when Bardot was despairing and attempted suicide, she was still doing romantic screwball comedies such as Please Not Now, a picture directed by her former husband, Roger Vadim. While these sexy comedies are somewhat formulaic, this one is energized by a vivacious performance by Bardot and a properly wacky supporting cast, including an out-of-control hypnotist.
Model Sophie (Bardot) is in love with her photographer boyfriend, Philippe Belmas (Jacques Riberolles). But Philippe has other plans, which involve running off with American slaughterhouse heiress Barbara Wilbury (Josephine James). Bardot, already the animal lover, comments that Wilbury "looks like the kind of person who would kill little animals." Running into Alain (Michel Subor) at a restaurant, she soon uses Alain to plot her revenge, first by making Philippe jealous, and then by taking Barbara out of the picture permanently, in the tradition of Sophie's murderous Corsican grandmother. The action gets wild and woolly on the slopes of Villars-de-Lans, as Sophie plots to get even while Alain plots to get Sophie for himself. Topping it all off is a lengthy fantasy sequence which features Bardot dancing first with only a towel and then without.
Bardot is at her most iconic here, with impossibly long eyelashes, elaborate wigs and pouty beestung lips. She seems to be having a good time with the role and puts a good deal into it. She has some fun slapstick moments, such as brainlessly blowing up the gas stove in her apartment. Riberolles is a typically colorless romantic interest; Subor is marginally better since he is willing to stop at nothing to win Sophie (in a decidedly non-PC moment of desperation, he forces her to disrobe at gunpoint). Serge Marquand is entertaining as Prince Shribouyoune Bayane, an Indian prince reduced to using his hypnotic powers in a nightclub act; unfortunately, he doesn't have the best control over his powers. Mireille Darc inexplicably gets third billing even though she has two brief scenes as Philippe's assistant, and displays no particular interest in the part.
Vadim's direction is for the most part pedestrian and workmanlike. He does, however, have his moments; one of the best of these is an amusing split-screen effect where we see both of the couples warring; as they push against the barrier, it moves and crowds the other couple tightly until they push back. The stylized nude sequence was notorious at the time and often severely cut. It's fairly modest in retrospect, filmed through a heavy fog which leaves most everything to the imagination. Anchor Bay says that it is presented complete and uncut here for the first time on video.
