Colpo rovente [Red Hot Shot] (1970)

For fans of the euro-crime genre this is a rare one that ticks all the boxes of a true Italian crime film, drugs, gangs, girls, and guns. Unfortunately the film never gained the recognition it deserved and almost appeared to be intentionally shunned.

Barbara Bouchet looks seductive and shows some cleavage, from the film Stoney 1969

Barbara Bouchet as Irene Stone "Stoney". Uses her "assets" to get some pull with the local authorities.

Stoney or (The Surabaya Conspiracy) marks Barbara Bouchet's first starring role. She plays Irene Stone, a woman who travels to war torn Surabaya, Philippines with the hope of recovering a wealth of treasure hidden in a vault under the town Commissioner's swimming pool. Made during the time period in American B-movie history where it was extremely popular to make films in the Philippines (because it was so cheap) Stoney suffers from a story so full of plot holes it might as well be called Swiss cheese.

Original film poster for the musical comedy Sweet Charity

I've learned there is something I can't stand more than musicals, Shirley MacLaine. Combine the two together and it's a recipe for boredom. It's either a horrible coincidence or somebody was really fond of Barbara Bouchet to cast her in three MacLaine "comedies". Unfortunately a spoonful of the lovely Bouchet can't help you stomach this large a serving of Shirley MacLaine.
