(1962)
Adam
and Six Eves
is from the
genre of early
60's nude
cuties.
Or topless
cuties.
This is a
movie of only
an hour's
length but in
55 of those
minutes you
will find at
least one, and
more often
several,
topless
women.
The number of
gals tops out
at 5 for any
one scene but
there are 6
total women,
as the title
indicates.
Fine.
And the women
who played the
six Eves are
named in the
credits.
Yay.
But, Houston,
we have a
problem: only
one of those
women did
anything other
than this
movie
(at least
using the
names provided
in the
credits) and
so for only
one, Leigh
Sands, could
face and body
be matched
with
name.
Leigh did some
print work and
sure enough, I
did find a
scan of
something she
did long, long
ago.
I
grouped the
other five
Eves in one
collage
and then threw
together some
of the best
frames for
each of them
into separate
collages,
which can be
found below,
accompanying
film
clips. I
find it
difficult to
believe women
this
attractive and
this willing
to disrobe in
the 60's found
no other
work.
Gotta believe
- wanna
believe - each
of them had
illustrious
careers
spanning
dozens of
films under
different
names but I
have no idea
what those
names might
be.
A word about
the movie
itself: it is
narrated by a
donkey.
I kid you
not. The
only spoken
words are said
to be those of
a donkey
ridden into
the desert by
a frumpy gold
prospector
named Adam,
who stumbled
upon an oasis
with six
women.
Only one of
the six women
is named - she
is called
Fatimah - and
the joke, of
sorts, is that
she has a
hideously long
nose.
All other
jokes, of
sorts, fall
into two
categories: 1)
Mildly amusing
double
entendres
about the
women; 2)
Unfunny and
gratuitous
insults about
Adam. It
reminded me of
the one
episode of Hee
Haw I was
forced to
watch decades
ago while
visiting
relatives in
Dothan,
Alabama.
The gals want
Adam to stay
because, well
supply and
demand makes
it so that
even withered
fruit is
priceless when
it is the only
food for
thousands of
miles.
Adam wants
only their
gold.
The whole
movie is about
the Eves
enticing with
tops off and
Adam looking
for ore,
rather than
more.
That is, of
course, the
biggest and
lamest joke of
all.
