Penelope (1966)


MGM
Directed by Arthur Hiller
My rating: 2.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Turner Classic Movies)

Natalie Wood is a ditzy wife who sticks up her rich husband's bank in order to get back at him for neglecting her. She tells the story to her psychoanalyst mostly in flashback. Peter Falk is in full Columbo mode as a police detective. Jonathan Winters has a throw away scene as a lecherous college professor. Natalie has fun in an easy role, and she looks great in her designer fashions and underwear.
