Please, Not Now! (Blu-ray)

Brigitte Bardot, playful sex kitten of the 1960s French cinema, stars in this madcap romantic comedy, seen through the fetishizing lens of Roger Vadim (Barbarella, ...And God Created Woman). When Sophie, a photographer’s model (Bardot), is jilted by her boyfriend (Jacques Riberolles), she becomes convinced she is the victim of a family curse, and takes shotgun in hand to eliminate her romantic rival (Joséphine James). Meanwhile, a young bachelor (Michel Subor) attempts to defuse Sophie’s rage, and win the slightly demented blonde for himself. Borrowing from the commedia all'italiana and nouvelle vague, Please, Not Now! (La bride sur le cou) is a cinematic delight, flavored with clever sight gags, exotic locations, and laced with sexual innuendo.
