Amorous Mis-Adventures Of Casanova (aka Casanova & Co.) (1977)

The legendary lover Casanova (Tony Curtis) is hiding from the Venetian authorities but a lookalike (Tony Curtis) is mistaken for him. When Casanova finds out the con man is taking advantage of the similarity in their looks, he comes out of hiding to seek him out and protect his reputation. Directed by Franz Antel, this sex comedy is the kind of bad movie that eventually becomes watchable as you revel in its awfulness and wonder, "What were these people thinking?". And when I say sex comedy, I do mean sex. One sequence with three nuns in girl on girl action crosses over to softcore porn territory. The humor is terrible too. Example: a soldier slips his hand down a woman's bodice and she asks, "Do you have a search warrant?". Yep, that's the level of "humor". The humor is also anachronistic as references to Disneyland and vibrators are tossed in a story that takes place in the 18th century. During its international release, the film had at least eight different titles. Probably a film its cast would love to leave off their resume. With Britt Ekland, Hugh Griffith, Marisa Berenson, Sylva Koscina, Victor Spinetti and Marisa Mell.
