Slip in a tena lady and you'll be fine......lol

WOW!ok, so i'm a massive Tony Curtis fan, but this film is actally the most bizarre, hilarious film ever! The general synopsis has been given in plenty of detail by everyone else, so i'll just rave on about HOW funny this film really is...Now, i have to confess, my personal favourite scene has got to be the one where Tony Curtis steals a pig off some indonesian farmers farm and dresses it in a naval officers uniform and tries to smuggle it onto the submarine by saying it is drunk - thus to explain the rather unusual sounds which emante from beneath the sea mans overcoat!It just keeps snorting, and then he locks it in the loo to hide it and.... well, lets just say that those with weak bladders should stay away from this film - although in all fairness it is probably ALOT funnier at 4 am after much wine has been consumed...*coughs* lol. Well, this is a spectacularly unhelpful review - just WATCH the film! ooo! and also try and see one called "Space Truckers" which features Charles Dance as a half robot thing, uttering the immortal lines: "If i had an anus i would soil myself...." Classic.

Operation Petticoat - Cary Grant, Tony Curtis

A must in Cary Grant Fans

This is a great comedy and a must for Grant Fans. Cary Grant as the commander of a very peculiar submarine sailing thru the Pacific with an even more peculiar crew. Great Movie

The Cast

Tony Curtis and Cary Grant are at their handsomest. You should see Cary in his admiral outfit. But, in my opinion, you may disagree, a very obvious flaw is the weak cast of women. I was casting it in my mind as I watched. Marilyn Monroe would have been hilarious-- and Thelma Ritter as the mechanic. Of course, with a stellar cast, the parts would have had to be better for them. The pink sub is hilarious and the men seem very relaxed, glad to get non-challenging roles. This is a must for the 50's comedies collector and has that great super-bright photography.
