Synopsis

The rubber-legged, rubber-faced Lewis plays Herbert H. Herbert, a man who is despondent over the break-up of his romance. While looking for a job, he comes across an impressive mansion (built as a set at the cost of 350,000 US dollars) filled with women of all types -- and lo and behold -- they need a handyman. So Herbert gets to reside with a bevy of women of various types, all under the supervision of Mrs. Wellenmelon (Helen Traubel).

Critics' reviews

"A bizarre, sexually ambiguous, cantankerously skeptical burlesque on the ascent of feminine independence. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 4)"

Eric Henderson: Slant
