Togetherness

Unfunny, somewhat unsavory farce with inconsistent characterization and music that alternates between a pleasant if repetitive Greekesque tune and an old-timey tune for whenever something wacky is supposed to be going on.  George Hamilton and Peter Lawford are rich playboys (Lawford a prince) who lie to a supposedly intellectual but actually very gullible blonde bombshell Yugoslavian Communist athlete.  Neither manages to seduce her but she does catch their habit of talking to and/or looking right at the camera.  Also featuring an annoying poodle that looks like a county fair prize when it's not barking, a countess who seduces Hamilton then later locks them into his bedroom, bad Yugoslavian food, and Jesse White as an ugly-American tourist.  Nice Greek scenery though.
