A working-class gold digger (Arlene Dahl) ruins her life as she uses men to get what she wants.

Terry Staunton

Radio Times

Director Ken Hughes packs a lot of incident into a reasonably short running time, and the narrative works well as a feminist revenge allegory.

Rated: 3/5

It wasn't bad but it certainly wasn't great either. It overall felt like too much and too forced to make her a stunning, strong lead.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
