“Delightful sex farce based on premises that do not stand up to a momentu0026#39;s scrutiny. Matrimony, bigamy, and adultery are airily treated as fun, carrying no dreary consequences. Beautiful girls surrender in an evening, and are happy to share their lovers. All enjoyable fantasy.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOne relationship in the film does have hints of reality, however, which is that of Matthias with his long-suffering and loyal secretary, Evie. As the story unfolds, kisses on the cheek become kisses on the lips and handshakes become hugs. This could be innocent affection, until at the end we learn that her child is Matthiasu0026#39; godson. As well as this ecclesiastical link, can we draw the implication of a biological link?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eCronenbergu0026#39;s u0026quot;Dead Ringersu0026quot; had identical twins sleeping with the same woman, but that moved into increasingly dark territory and ended very badly. Robertu0026#39;s breezy fairy tale skates over profundities, leaving the hero to enjoy the beds and bank balances of the two princesses.”
