PROMISES! PROMISES!

Cinemavixion Review

This 1963 comedy, "Promises! Promises!", offers a saucy, albeit somewhat dated, look at marital mishaps and unexpected pregnancies. Starring the vivacious Jayne Mansfield alongside Tommy Noonan and Marie McDonald, the film navigates a shipboard escapade where two women find themselves in a predicament of uncertain paternity. While the narrative might lean into the era's more risqué humor, the performances, particularly from Mansfield, provide a glimpse into the playful spirit of mid-century Hollywood comedies. The intriguing premise, hinted at by its suggestive title and a notable mention in Playboy, invites viewers to a frothy, lighthearted exploration of romantic entanglements and the comedic chaos they can unleash. A curiosity for fans of classic Hollywood and its more daring productions.
