Not Oscar's finest moment

In the summer of 1966, The Oscar was playing all over the country. It was promoted as classy trash (like Valley of the Dolls) but really it was boring trash, full of bad writing and bad acting. My review is here. Below are newspaper ads from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, New York City (an ad which stresses star power), and San Francisco. In San Francisco (the third ad below) it was double-billed with Inside Dairy Clover--what an excruciating double feature that must have been.
