Rating:

- Very original!
I absolutely love this film! It is clever and offers a funny but serious insight of the communist paranoia of the 1950s. Matt Letscher is great as Guy Stone, the Rock Hudson-like actor who is too absorbed in finding the perfect lover (at least for the night) while ignoring the possible ramifications of his actions.

- Oh gawd it was bad!
