Wishman Lame

My Brother's Wife (1966) * (out of 4) Doris Wishman sexploitation flick about a bored woman who marries an older, boring husband only to end up having an affair with his much younger, low-life brother. If you want nudity and sex then you've come to the wrong film. This film runs a scant 61-minutes but it felt like the movie went on for days because there's really not much that goes on. The entire film runs around the idea that the younger brother is going to take the wife to Mexico and we hear them discuss it throughout the flick and that's pretty much it. As is normal with this type of film, the movie was made without sound and had dubbing go back over it so this here is pretty distracting even though Wishman does a nice job in mixing this with the film. If you want sexploitation then try something else.

Part of a group of Art movies a friend recommended to me

The Plot (2/ 5).

The plot was simple......man visits brother, has an affair with his sister in law. Brother then cons sister-in-law for money with false promises. The movie paces well, and the outside stories are minimal

The Acting (0.5 / 5) The opening fight scene was phonier than any wrestling match I ever saw and unfortunately the acting never got any better. The dubbing means that every scene involving the two main male actors sounds like they're reading off of cue cards while the female lead on the other hand, comes across as competent. There a places in the film where the dialogue gives the impression of 'padding' to make the scenes last longer.

Overall (2.5) Some of the breaks in the movies gave the impression that this may have been a made for TV movie (something quickly quashed by the movie's content). The nudity factor here is medium, and some of it is quite gratuitous and does nothing for the plot. It's too hard to overlook the flaws in this one for me.
