The Bellboy and the Playgirls (1962)

The bellboy aspires to be a private eye and is reading a book to learn the trade. The 'suspicious' activities of women in the hotel give him a chance to practice his skills. Surprise! They are representatives of a lingerie manufacturer. To investigate further, he poses as a potential buyer, and the women take turns modeling their wares. This includes demonstrations of how easily the garments come off - making this a film destined for softcore movie palaces in the '60s.

*According to Wikipedia, “The film is a re-edited version of a German film of 1958 originally titled Mit Eva fing die Sünde an [The Sin Began with Eva]”, directed by Fritz Umgelter.  This jibes with Coppola’s own recollection, that he was hired to shoot supplemental material in the stereoscopic Optavision process to jazz up a “stupid German movie”.  And by all accounts, Mit Eva fing die Sünde an does indeed appear to be pretty ghastly in its stupidity.  But even still, one might be surprised to hear that Umgelter’s commandeered black & white footage (prominently featuring Karin Dor of later Topaz and You Only Live Twice fame) is still better directed than Coppola’s tossed-off color/3-D insert nonsense.
