Bill,

We already know there had to be a "feel good" and heroic ending to a
weird story about a flying car, so somebody had to be the "Evil One"
Dick Van Dyke and Sally Anne Howe had to defeat to that end. Who
better than a sexy villianess(bring the fathers to the box-office)who
gets her just desserts(bring in the jealous mothers)? By the way, did
you notice the wide eyes of all those teenaged boys as they chase
Anna up on that table, and she lifts her skirts? Bill, there's a LOT
of psychology going on in the screenplay, and I don't think it's by
accident. Somebody could write a book on it.

Our forever favorite scenes? Anna kicking up one leg, showing a
jeweled garter, then those gloved fingers(huge diamond on her pinky)
doing a toe-to-thigh walk down one of the most sexily-displayed limbs
in film history. Again, we think, what is this doing in a kid's film?
Whether she's falling off that table or avoiding an axe, Anna's
curves are everywhere. Again, what is a beautiful and curvaceous
woman with sexy braids of floor-length blonde hair, totally vamping
in her underwear, doing in a kid's flick?

Arrividerci Baby is my next must-buy! Thanks for the description of
Anna's character, and I will also look forward to seeing Nancy Kwan
in this film. As always, thanks for the insights!

Len
