Filmmaker Mick Garris wonders WILL SUCCESS SPOIL ROCK HUNTER?
The Fourth Wall is broken early and often in Frank Tashlin's wacked-out followup to The Girl Can't Help It, which bears little resemblance to the Broadway play it's based on but is still a heck of a lot of fun. 1950s "culture" is skewered mercilessly, especially television--at times it looks like this was produced directly by The National Association of Theater Owners. Jayne Mansfield's career highlight.
