France's most famous bombshells, Brigitte Bardot and Jeanne Moreau, "make an unbeatable comedy team" (Motion Picture Herald) in this "joyfully romantic fairy tale for adults!" (Life)! "Fast-moving, eye-catching and filled with sight gags" (Cue), this hysterical film from three-time Oscar®-nominated* director Louis Malle (My Dinner With Andre) and co-writer Jean-Claude Carriere satirizes everything from American westerns to revolutions, dictators, the Church, priesthood and even sex itself!
When two women-both named Maria-unwittingly invent the striptease circa 1910, they become such a hit that enthusiastic audiences strip along with them! But when one of the Marias falls for a handsome revolutionary (George Hamilton), she finds that she has unwittingly embroiled the two of them in an armed peasant revolt!
