Gotta like a Gal who puts a gun in one boot and a hair brush in the other...
The single-best fight sequence occurs after the man proclaims he will show no mercy to a WOman...
Even tho the stuntman double does all the improbable moves, Honey / Anne Francis is there to do the in-close fighting...
And mercilessly chops the boaster into pieces...
And then one of the greatest moments of the series occurs...
After beating the snot out of the guy, she pulls the brush out of her boot and combs her hair in the mirror...
The Gal always makes sure she looks good...
Later on she shows her motherly-nurturing instinct to the clobbered Sam...

The fight sequence stiffened me with so much nervous anticipation that I could not stand up. It was embarrassing with company in the living room. That was the first time I was turned on by a woman punishing and humiliating a man who was also skilled in the deadly art of hand to hand combat. Also adding insult to injury - unscathed - she brushes her hair. That was a wickedly sinful turn of events." | |
