Joseph Strick helmed this adaptation of playwright Jean Genet's surrealistic political satire about customers who continue their fantasy role-playing in a brothel, oblivious to the violent revolution raging in the streets. Shelley Winters stars as the bordello's madam, and Peter Falk shines as the police chief who attempts to stem the insurrection. Nominated for a Best Cinematography Oscar, the film costars Leonard Nimoy, Lee Grant and Ruby Dee.
