I highly agree with Tiki Mick. I wasn't expecting much when I went to see Down with Love" especially considering they were messing with one of my favorite genres. But they actually pulled it off.

It reminded me a lot of Sex and the Single Girl (1964) with Natalie Wood and Tony Curtis. (If you love lounge/cocktail, go rent it! Great title song by Fran Jeffries and there's a car chase on the newly opened 405 freeway in Sepulveda Pass. Oh, and don't forget the scene with Ms. Wood half naked in bed.)

Atomic Cocktail also especially liked the club with the space girls dancing on stage. Wasn't it called The Astronauts Club or something like that?
