It was 1975. Me and my other 15 year old friends went to Meh-he-ko, on a sister city youth exchange, and saw this stupid movie about a hundred times. It was about the only fun thing to do there. To this day, we use the quotes, "have you seen her bottle dance"?, "I keel you"!, and sing, "after the ball is over"!! Good 'ol Jose! "I keel you"! is a standard joke for me, whenever my kids do a dumb thing. (It gets used A LOT) LOL! As corndog a movie as they come, but the blond chick..YOWZA!!!
Jose, her lover, kills her out of jealousy at the end. You can say it would have been smarter to just walk away (she does put him through the ringer), but people in love aren't always thinking clearly.
Actually, one reason for the glasses during the bedroom scene, besides the fact that it looked interesting visually, is that the actress playing Carmen, Uta Levka, was three months pregnant at the time and starting to show--they didn't want to show her completely nude for obvious reasons . . .

I just got the DVD with 45 Metzger trailers which were an art form as much if not more than the films. This is one of the best.

hahahahhahah how many lovemaking scenes are there? They could at least cover it from beyond that glass. This movie looks real interesting though.
