Terminally coy and unsexy sex-farce, even more teasing than the popular Doris Day bedroom comedies from this era, has Sandra Dee married to photographer Bobby Darin, trying to make him jealous to get his mind off the models--later attempting to train him like a dog! Dee never warms up to the camera: she poses instead of acts, her heavily lipsticked mouth always puckered in surprise. Bobby Darin (Sandy's real-life husband) is looser and more involved with the audience, but he plays a stock character, the inattentive husband. Film doesn't even look good: the sets are cumbersome and the décor is tacky. Two Golden Globe nominations: Best Supporting Actor Cesar Romero and Best Motion Picture-Comedy. *1/2 from ****
