[bomp] "What New Pussycat?"




Greetings!
 
I finally own the DVD.  Day before yesterday, I purchased "What's New  
Pussycat?"  For many years, I told people that "The Knack and How to Get  It" was my 
all time favorite movie, but I think "What's New Pussycat" now took  the 
place of "The Knack and How to Get It" as my all time favorite movie.   Why 
shouldn't be?  The movie is very psychedelic.  It incorporate the  best of 1960s mod 
culture, the sexual revolution of the 1960s, the wonderful  swinging sounds 
of Burt Bacharach in regard to Dionne Warwick, Manfred Mann's  version of "My 
Little Red Book," and the neurotic humor of Woody Allen since he  wrote the 
screenplay.  It is "the perfect movie" as far as I am  concerned.  I really dig 
the brunette American stripper (played by  Paula Prentiss) in the movie.  I 
couldn't help laughing my ass over the  character of Dr. Fritz Franfebber played 
by Peter Sellers.  This guy is  like Woody Allen meets Beatle Bob (or I would 
say that Mike Meyers got the idea  of Austin Powers from Dr. Fritz 
Franfebber's character mixed with Michael James'  character played by Peter O'Toole).  
When I watch a movie like "What's  New Pussycat?," it reminds me why I like the 
fashion of  the 1960s.    
 
 
 
Cheers,
Melvin Little
