Tallulah Bankhead is Catherine the Great of Russia. She seduces a loyal member of her army and promotes him to leader of the palace guards. He must deal with not only her fickleness, but an incipient coup. It reveals its theater origins by the confined quarters and stagy feel, but does offer up some choice, fast-paced dialogue by Tallulah and her costars.
