I really loved seeing this. I thought the film protrayed and interesting look at how the idea of beauty has changed through the ages. Not bad for 1965.

Interesting view of sex in the cinema....I never thought of Shirley Temple as a sex goddess before..Marlene Dietrich, Heddy Lamar..she also invented a device for the US Navy,,,true google it...and the others,,its hard to see some of these women as attractive...you just have to look at society at that time and what it considered beauty..women in the teens, 2os and 30s had bodies like normal people, not the sculpted figures we have today

I was surprised at how much I loved this film. My love of documentaries and my love of old movies intersect here. How great it is to see how our conception of beauty and acceptance of sexuality have changed over the years. Also, how wonderful it is to see and discover/rediscover the great beauties of film again! Highly recommended.

Dated and lame, this snoozefest would be better left unseen. A total waste of time with nothing of value to be learned and precious little in the 'sexy' department.
