OK, once again, you just dont know what the heck youre going to view next in Ricks Fun Film Factory, and this film about rayon fabric, just goes beyond the mere bizarre and jets off into delirious territory. This awful movie takes its time getting there though. The film bizarrely starts off with the main character named Molly as a kid wondering about the man she'll marry, fast forward to her marriage to the curiously playmobil shellacked haired Bob. Fast forward again to them living in somewhat happy domesticity. I say somewhat because Molly is forced to wear older fashions, she hasnt a thing…
★★★★★ · Semi-synthetic film for a semi-synthetic fabric · HappySwordsman · 2021-08-07
Cute film here, lovely fashions, nice set designs, charming ladies, bizarre script, rayon, what more could you want? 4 stars for the film, plus an extra star for featuring Betty Furness.
