a promise of bed (1969)


aka This, That, and the Other.
"Exactly what did happen in your suite?"
A trilogy of stories. In 'This' Susan (Vanda Hudson), a fading sex symbol seduces a young man (Denis Waterman), whom she believes is the son of a film producer, in an attempt to win the lead in a movie. 'That' features George (Victor Spinetti), a depressed loner, who is attempting suicide, but is interrupted by a girl (Vanessa Howard) who believes he's having a party. 'Other', has Harold (John Bird), crashing his taxi when he is distracted by his sexy passenger. He then spirals in to an hallucinogenic world where he is chased by nubile young girls.
This succeeds in being neither funny, or sexy, quite a feat as it features a number of capable actors, and nude women! One of those films that all concerned is quite happy to forget.
