S.O.B. (1981)

After his expensive movie becomes a notorious flop, a famous director (Richard Mulligan) loses his mind and after several failed suicide attempts, decides to turn his flop into a softcore  erotic flick including nude scenes by his wife (Julie Andrews), a wholesome actress known as America's Sweetheart. After his unpleasant experience with Paramount and DARLING LILI, Blake Edwards wrote this black comedy, an outrageous satire on the swinish excesses, hedonism and self indulgence of Hollywood, which still hasn't quite found its audience almost thirty years after it was made. It's uneven to be sure but filled with witty arrows and amusing stings. It's a venomous fairy tale (with a little payback) and while one wishes it were better, it's good enough. The huge cast includes William Holden, Robert Preston, Shelley Winters, Rosanna Arquette, Larry Hagman, Robert Loggia, Marisa Berenson, Robert Webber, Robert Vaughn, Gene Nelson, Loretta Swit, Craig Stevens, Paul Stewart and Virginia Gregg.
