i do not even know that this one be readily available to watch but i immediately snap it up when i saw it be available for rental from the local dvd store . actually and i have watch the godawful myra breckenridge ( 1970 ) on tv while i be in hollywood a few month ago so i be really expect the bad here . surprisingly and it turn out to be a fitfully amuse affair if a completely embarrass one . previously and i have only watch mae west ( with whom and i just find out and i happen to share my birthday ) in her prime she do him wrong ( 1933 ) and im no angel ( 1933 ) and my little chickadee ( 1940 ) and i love all three of them . despite her writing talent and west main asset be always her figure and appearance so it no surprise that she bow out when she do which and of course and make her eventual re emergence a a heavily cosmeticized octogenarian all the more outrageous and baffling . over the year there have be numerous surprising comeback in hollywood not to mention lavishly produce ego trip but i would bet few reach the level of preposterousness attain by sextette . hollywood in the seventy and among other thing and be an era of catastrophic and all star attempt to recapture past glory particularly it musical heritage and therefore it small wonder that sextette rope in some uncharacteristic cameo appearance by contemporary music star like ringo starr ( a an erich von stroheim like director ) and keith moon ( a a flamboyant fashion designer ) and and weird of all and alice cooper ( a a piano playing and bellboy crooner sport a curly haired wig ) . the beatles also make another appearance of sort when mae agent and dom deluise burst into an exuberant rendition of lennon or mccarney honey pie and guess who he be think of when he be sing it . apparently and miss west wasn not too keen on have these four steal her limelight however and she do approve of her lead men who and of course and be request to still be lust helplessly after mae an aristocratic timothy dalton ( who get to sing a duet with mae and whose remark be frequently misinterpret in the press . ) and mobster george hamilton ( who be also see plead in broken italian to his godfather cue the nino rota score from that film . for the sake of mario irving mozzarella marinara . ) while other guest star who make an appearance be tony curtis a a russian powermonger ( . ) and walter pigeon a a bewildered chairman of the board and a split second cameo from george raft who co star with mae in her very first film and night after night ( 1932 ) a himself . ken hughes helm some good film in his day the trial of oscar wilde ( 1960 ) and cromwell ( 1970 ) but and i guess and the producer of sextette only know him from his comedic and big budget extravaganza like casino royale ( 1967 ) and chitty chitty bang bang ( 1968 ) when they engage his service for this misbegotten enterprise .
