Spain released, PAL/Region 2 DVD: LANGUAGES: English ( Dolby Digital Stereo ), Spanish ( Dolby Digital Stereo ), Spanish ( Subtitles ), SPECIAL FEATURES: Filmographies, Interactive Menu, Scene Access, SYNOPSIS: At age forty-one, Robert Danvers is renowned for being an ego-maniacal celebrity chef and culinary critic who hosts his own London based gourmet food television show called "Good Taste". But he's equally renowned for being a womanizing cad who has a revolving door of women coming and going. He's met his match in a nineteen year old American named Marion, who picks up him up without knowing who he is or anything about his public or personal life. But she seems to immediately know what he's all about. She admits that she wants to stay one step ahead of him in their sexual game. Despite their bumpy start or perhaps because of it, she moves into his flat a day after knowing him and accompanies him on a business trip to the south of France. This being a relationship totally foreign to both, can it last, or will it last because it is different than all the previous casual relationships they've had up until now? SCREENED/AWARDED AT: BAFTA Awards, ...There's a Girl in My Soup (1970)

A great film it isn't, but highly watchable just the same. What makes it fascinating is that Sellers' character of a cheesy seducer seems so close to the image we have of the man. Presenting himself with the chance to make a new life with the sassy, sexy, much younger Marion - a wonderful turn from Goldie Hawn - gourmet and charmer Robert Danvers goes clean out of his comfort zone. The comedy of innuendoes and crossed wires doesn't flag. And there's real pathos in the neurotic, temperamental edge Sellers gives his character: the vulnerability that lies beneath the charm.
Odd that a man we think of as an iconic sixties star was perhaps already out of date when the sixties came along.

Leonard Maltin disliked this hilariously-funny film, featuring a long series of incidents in which serial-sexual-athlete Robert Danvers (Peter Sellers as a TV chef) hopping in-and-out of various beds in double-quick time. Racy, down-to-earth British humour is clearly not to Maltin's Transatlantic taste. Goldie Hawn is as innocently delicious as ever, while the supporting cast play their parts with great aplomb.

A waste of talent
Good acting but uninteresting story. Not much happens and its very talky. Judging from the cover and the casting I expected a fun comedy but "There's a Girl in My Soup" feels more... Read more
