In school, young Albert has just learned how to build a periscope, and
now he uses his newly acquired knowledge on the upstairs lesbian nurses
Veronica and Angela (Laura Gemser), who seem to have sex almost all the
time. Eventually though, he is caught, but when Angela wants to give
Albert the scolding he has deserved, his mum defends him (undeservedly)
and instead rudely insults Angela because of her lesbianism. Mum though is
no saint herself, as she has an extramarital affair with a man whom she
even uses to better her financial situation. One day, she decides to buy a
fur coat with the money she got from her client ... er, lover - but once
she got the fur coat, she realizes she has no excuse for having one, so
she pawns it for a mere 50 bucks and then tells her husband she has found
the pawn ticket, and asks Albert to go to the pawnshop for her to retrieve
whatever-it-is, pretending she has no idea it is her fur coat. In the
meantime, Albert has grown quite friendly with nurse Veronica, and when he
has to go to the pawnshop he asks her to accompany him. Later at her
appartment, he and Veronica unwrap the furcoat, and Veronica instantly
falls in love with it. This is when Angela comes home, and she instantly
realizes what's going on and how one could have gotten a new furcoat for a
mere 50 bucks - and since she wants to have her revenge on Albert's mum
she seduces the boy, and ... ... when mum finds a cheap and ugly stole
in the package from the pawnshop that was to contain her furcoat, she has
a breakdown. And when the nurses from upstairs come to give first aid and
one of them wears the furcoat, she goes out of her mind ... So-so
Euro-erotic comedy, heavily (yet unofficially) borrowing from Roald Dahl's
Mrs. Bixby and the Colonel's Coat - which is at least a good source
to borrow from. Other than that, there isn't really much to say about this
film, it's just your typical not very funny but sexy comedy, and a film
you will probably have forgotten way too soon. On the other hand though,
there are far worse Italian comedies out there ...
