So glad this movie is - finally! - available on DVD with good picture quality. As an Inger fan I like the movie for that reason alone of course. But you really have to have lived in the "duck and cover" era, even practiced the same, to really appreciate the nostalgia. And there is more on many other levels too - but just love the movie.
@ohsnapitsme59 Yeah, it is now pretty common knowledge about her marriage to Ike Jones (UCLA grad, worked for Nat Cole.) I have a series of Inger tributes on You Tube. One of them, Inger Stevens Memorial Video, has a picture of Inger and Ike together. In that picture, at least, Ike bears a somewhat general resemblance to Harry - similar haircuts and build, but perhaps not so much otherwise.
yes i heard about that. we've lost a few good ones in the past.
i could never make up my mind whether this film was a bit silly or not, but i found it highly enjoyable nonetheless!
i definitely think this scene is supposed to resemble a painful, awkward bout of lovemaking- not for its own sake, but partly, to emphasise the racial taboos that were prevalent at the time (and now, judging by some comments on youtube!)

@sseklof It wouldn't be a stretch for Ms. Stevens. In real life she was married to a black man. It came out after her death.

@norristerse LOL not at all. I love the film, just not your interpretation of it.
I like these actors a great deal. I think Stevens was particularly underrated and I'm sorry for her unfortunate end...
