PROBLEM: worth watching . The movie is not good but a lot can be learned by watching it through, even though it drags. The 1950s 'babe' played by Jayne is a period piece, but having lived in Las vegas for the past five years, I can tell the readers of this review that the type is alive and well in this city. The film is about a certain niche, created by men and probably by religion too, and into this niche women step and become stigmatized. The whore or babe is like the witch in the medieval period - something demonic and devilish. I assure you, the values in the film are not out-of-date. The movie also is an interesting source of info about ethnicity and regionalism - espec. Italian and the NYC area. And you see in this a connection to Las Vegas too. The film, if it teaches anything, teaches us that we are far less emancipated, liberated, rational, liberal, etc. in regard to sex and to women than we thought we were. Again the parallel to witchcraft is a good one: naive liberals thought the witch-hunting was over in the early 1700s. In fact, witches were burned in all major European ocuntries into the late 1700s. And 1950s babes a la Mansfield are not only the adult identity of many, especially in Las Vegas, in the year 2000, but are probably the role-models of 6 and 7 year olds. ...

PROBLEM: Bizarre and ridiculous rip-off; a drug-induced nightmare put to film . How the film-makers achieved financing to make this film I'll never understand. The make-up, costuming, screen-writing, directing, acting, cinematography, editing are all over-the-top and way over-done. It looks like an amateur film-school project. Nicole Kidman is beautiful--the one bright spot in this film. For some reason, a film set in the late 19th century had the male lead and entire cast break out singing "The Sound of Music" by Rodgers and Hammerstein. Someone must have been smoking something illegal that lead to this manic, ridiculous parody? of a musical. Nowhere did I read a review that said it was a parody and farce; it was supposed to be a musical. There was no way I could view this film for more than 15 minutes, and that long just to see if the title character would awake from a drug-induced nightmare. I love musicals but this one should definitely be viewed free on television and not rented or bought until you see if you can stand it. Save your money--it is awful. Note: If I had read a review such as this, I would have saved myself time and money
