Product description

Scilla (Wendy Craig) is fed up her husband. His fondness of the bottle and flirtatious behavior with the stars of his numerous television productions drives her to leave him to his selfish ways. She quits her job as a singer on one of his shows and moves in with a friend planning to build herself the ideal home, one designed perfectly for baths and parties.

'Just Like a Woman' captures the bright swinging sixties. It's bold, colourful and sometimes surrealist design is seen through the wary eyes of the bickering couple as they try their best to be more 'kooky' and daring than the other.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Greetings from a parallel universe.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 August 2009
    This is Robert Fuest's first film, made even before his wonderful work on "The Avengers". As such, it's maybe most interesting for allowing us to observe the way the story- and the writer/director- struggle with the received notion of a British Swingin' Sixties movie (school of Richard Lester) before giving up and heading off in their own direction.

    The self-conscious whackiness is set on stun as we're dropped into the story of the marital troubles of a TV director (Francis Matthews wafting enjoyably in and out of his patented Cary Grant impression) and the star of his show (Wendy Craig, giving it three and a half Rita Tushinghams out of a possible five).

    This being the capital S sixties, they of course meet lots of Crazy people, including Clive Dunn (pre Corporal Jones, playing a demented German architect in this, the era when such characters could be introduced with snippets of Hitler's speeches on the soundtrack) Denis Price (with "Kind Hearts and Coronets" a memory dissolved in brown ale and only Jess Franco waiting in his future)and Miriam Karlin (post- "Rag Trade", pre- "Clockwork Orange").

    At first, only a quick shot seen through the spokes of a bicycle wheel tips us off that this is the same director who made the Dr Phibes films and "The Final Programme". There's a real sense that Fuest is trying- and more or less failing- to get a handle on the capital S sixties. But he seems to realise this and it's then that the film becomes really interesting as an opportunity to see a director's signature style developing before our very eyes. All of a sudden the walls are white, decorated with graphics and typography. Clive Dunn lives in a gonzo-Bauhaus sanctum sanctorum attended by a quartet of Battle of Britain-style fighter pilots who "fly" escort to his limousine in bubble cars. One half expects the smiling face of Patrick Macnee to appear around the door at any moment.

    It's all a mess, of course. But an oddly entertaining one, even if it never quite gets off the ground. The story ends with a big party in the "futuristic" house that Wendy has commissioned from Clive, everybody is reconciled with everybody else and they all dance out into the dawn in a scene that manages to cheekily borrow from both Fellini and Bergman.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Good film - excellent picture quality (Blu Ray)

    A mid 1960's film which is a bit 'quirky' and which I found the story line quite confusing. There are much better films during this period but its highly colourful and with the excellent picture quality (Blu Ray) the film was still quite enjoyable to watch
