Who's Been Sleeping in My Bed?

Caught a bit of this one last night when TCM had the nerve to run it. Even Elizabeth Montgomery can't save this stinker. Louis Nye married to Jill StJohn and he can't get it up?... Okaaay... maybe THAT's believable... But Jack Soo and his adorable wife? This movie illustrates the reason why the feminist movement began. Carol Burnett is hideous. The only excuse to catch this one is that you have dropped acid and want to blow your mind. It Blows.

It is one of those film that gets shown late at night, but is worth staying up for if you like a good romantic comedy. Between Carol Burnett's Stella and the chief protagonists of Dean Martin and Elizabeth Montgomery it is a great and very funny movie.

Highly entertaining, frequently funny, always enjoyable and fun, this is one of Dino's best later comedies. Of course, I think all his solo films of this era are good, even when they aren't (hello Who's Got the Action), because he's in 'em. Anyway, this is a 9 outta ten galfest comedy, with a good cast and some fine babes. But most of all, it's Dean Martin. I loved the guy. Still do. Only drawback here is Carol Burnett's human goony bird antics, which are non stop, and more revolting than funny. Get her a man, or a padded room.

Carol Burnett steals the movie, she's the only comic attraction, everyone else is stuffing, almost pathetic. Elizabeth Montgomery was beautiful. That's all.

Jason Steel (Dean Martin) has every reason to be happy. He is a very successful actor starring in his own TV series and he has a lovely fiancee (Elizabeth Montgomery) who adores him. But he suddenly finds himself beseiged by the wives of his poker buddies. Each is upset because their husbands inexplicably ignore them (even though most are knock-out gorgeous) and they ask Jason for help...or seem interested in having an affair with him. After a while, it's so bad, Jason is about ready to lose his mind. The film starts off just fine. However, about midway through it the film loses its way and the plot seems to just grind to a halt. And, as a result, the movie becomes very dull and seemingly pointless. In other words, the writers had no idea WHAT to do next....and this is why I don't recommend this picture.

funny, intelligent "black comedy" has Dino as a totally frustrated soap opera star > he plays a Doctor who , like Ben Casey at the time, had millions of fans trying to contact, should I say "connect", with him, because his portrayal of the learned, caring specialist is so convincing. his big problem is that the wives of his buddies also clamor for him, at the most inopportune times. all the actors do just fine, esp., as I wrote above, Carol Burnett. she burns thru each scene and lifts the fairly hum drum plot line. movie runs a tad long and gets a bit frantic at the end, but this is total entertainment. interesting to note that just after this "sleeper" (sorry) all the leads got a TV show of their OWN!

Dean Martin, as a TV doctor along the lines of the then-popular "Ben Casey", is besieged by the unhappy wives of his poker pals; they all want the doctor's advice for curing the marital blahs, which causes Dino to reexamine his relationship with steady girlfriend Elizabeth Montgomery. Plastic bedroom farce which showcases some curvy, classy ladies but doesn't give Martin anything to do but react. He's on auto-pilot anyway, only lively when trying to skirt around dance-crazy Jill St. John. The supporting players upstage the leads, with Carol Burnett a stitch as Montgomery's wiseacre gal-pal, Martin Balsam lively as a head-shrinker, and droll Johnny Silver playing Martin's seen-it-all houseboy (who makes frequent trips to the liquor store). Not much happens here to justify the 103-minute running time, although director Daniel Mann does manage some funny bits of satire and frantic comedy, including Burnett's striptease in a Tijuana bar. ** from ****
