Minsky's Needed A Raid-Full Blast **
5 July 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Asinine film where an Amish girl comes to New York to do biblical dancing and winds up at Minsky's Burlesque instead. She is put to the test so that her bible dancing will not lead to a raid; yet, her father shows up and has it out with her causing her to literally bare all.

This is a very inane production with a ridiculous plot. Unfortunately, Bert Lahr's part had to be cut as he died suddenly during the production of the film.

Jason Robards tries real hard as a king-pin of burlesque, but he is no leading man and his routines are quite stale at best.

Britt Ekland is that Amish girl, Elliot Gould runs the club, but is at odds with his orthodox Jewish father, Joseph Wiseman.

What's really the point of this total farce?
