Kim Novak (Polly, wife for a
night), Dean Martin (Dino, the Italian crooner)
and Ray Walston (Orville Jeremiah Spooner, the composer) are ready to
start their crazy night |
|
|
|
Polly takes from the kitchen
a strange wine bottle.
Why no one in the production team noticed this "strange" shape?
|
Kim Novak at her best ...
|
|
|
The strange bottle now is
owned by Dino ... |
|
|
|
... and Dino starts his
seduction from Polly's feet |
|
|
|
firts step done: the high heel shoe is gone ... |
Dino is in heaven, Polly is
beside him, her legs are naked and she
is now barefoot ... |
|
|
Polly's shoe can be used now
also for a different scope ... |
Polly's shoe is full of wine
... |
|
|
and now the Don Giovanni can
use it in an inappropriate way ... |
... with little surprise in
the tender housewife ... |
|
|
but he wants her in the
proper way ... |
unfortunately her husband is
still playing the piano (he's trying
to sell a song to the famous singer, the title of the song is "Sofia",
remembering Sofia Loren, Italian diva ...) |
|
|
but Dino is interested only
in his (fake) wife ... |
... and he's using as a glass
also the other shoe, and Polly is amused |
|
|
... while the real wife,
Zelda (Felicia Farr) is coming back ...
and she's a beauty too ... |
In her home they are dancing
... , Polly barefoot |
|
|
... and Dino is watching
Polly dancing, with the strange bottle
in his hands
(Does this scene remembers another one? Sure, Mickey Rourke
in "9 and 1/2 weeks", but in the 1986 movie at least they were only two
...) |
|
|
|
The problem is to remain in
two ... |
Polly does not know what to
do |
|
|
... she is waiting
for the choice,
the bottle is now in her hands ... |
two choices for Polly |
|
|
After other changes
of scene (let watch the film ...) Polly is now alone with Orville, |
and walks
barefoot in "her" home; she is now a perfect sexy housewife in a warm
Saturday evening ... |
|
|
... and the symbol
is now owned but her husband, that is showing it to his wife (alone,
finally ...) |
... and they go to
their bedroom
(with Polly's barefoot still in close-up) |
|
|
|
And the poor Dino?
Has he remained alone? And Zelda, what did she
do after she discovered her husband with another woman (and a man)?
Alone she too?
Not at all. Dino met casually Zelda, and Zelda, almost
drunk, has not refused him, no. So he at least had his Southern housewife. And even Orville understands, in the very last scene, that this
night was very special not only for him ... |
Zelda: "Kiss Me, Stupid!" |
