FOREIGN LANGUAGE FEATURE REVIEWS The Conjugal Bed Comedy Embassy 90 Minutes Rel. Sept. ’63 An Italian-language picture which makes sport of excessive sexual demands which wear out a 40year-old bridegroom, this Henryk Chroscicki and Alfonso Sansone Franco-Italian co-production, must depend on its bedroom humor to attract large patronage — mostly in the key cities. Marina Vlady, who won the “best actress” award at the recent Cannes Film Festival, is the sole marquee name, but it is Ugo Tognazzi who captures the acting honors as the bewildered middle-aged husband. Under its original title “L’Ape Regina” (The Queen Bee) , the picture is a huge grosser in Italy, where its characters and bawdy situations will be better appreciated. The slight story and screenplay by Raphael Azcona and Marco Ferreri (the latter also directed) deals with Tognazzi before and after he gives up his carefree bachelor existence and marries a well-bred young girl, who demands endless lovemaking — to the extent that he becomes worn out. At long last, she becomes pregnant and, after the baby occupies the wife’s time, the husband is ignored and dies — a strange ending for a farcical tale. The many intimate bedroom sequences make this strictly adult fare. Miss Vlady is enchanting but scarcely outstanding. Achille Maieroni, an Italian character actor, does an amusing impersonation of a domineering matriarch in the beehive of women. Marina Vlady, Ugo Tognazzi, Walter Giller, Achille Maieroni, Riccardo Fellini, Linda Sini. r -| | SEND ME 52 timed-right " complete service” isssues each year □ 1 year at $3 □ 2 years at $5 □ 3 years at $7 □ Check enclosed □ Please bill me THEATRE STREET TOWN ZONE STATE NAME POSITION THE NATIONAL FILM WEEKLY 825 Van Brunt Blvd., Kansas City 24, Mo. 10 BOXOFFICE BookinGuide :: Oct. 7, 1963
