Review of Barbarella (1968) by Muffin M — 02 Sep 2011
The setting is the planet Lythion in the year 40,000 AD, when Barbarella (Jane Fonda) makes a forced landing while travelling through space. She acts like a female James Bond, vanquishing evil in the forms of robots and monsters. She also rewards, in an uninhibited manner, the handsome men who assist her in the adventure. Whether she is wrestling with Black Guards, the evil Queen, or the Angel Pygar, she just can't seem to avoid losing at least part of her skin-tight space suit!
Also stars John Phillip Law, Milo O'Shea, David Hemmings, Marcel Marceau, Ugo Tognazzi, Anita Pallenberg, Antonio Sabato and Talitha Pol.
Directed by Roger Vadim.
