Holstra Boring, long, and too preachy.

Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Ortiz Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Lee Eisenberg Tom DeSimone's "Chatterbox" is the sort of movie that you can only enjoy if you accept low, blatantly ridiculous humor. I do. They probably made it just because it was now acceptable to make a movie about a woman whose main sexual organ develops the ability to talk. They knew exactly what kind of movie they were making. Very likely aimed to appeal mainly to 14-year-old boys, although I get the feeling that the psychiatrist's inclination to use the woman's unusual ability to make money is a swipe at greed.And the cast is interesting. Candace Rialson starred mainly in these sorts of movies. Another cast member is Sandra Gould, best known as the second Gladys Kravitz on "Bewitched". And of course, there's the always flamboyant Rip Taylor.Good times.

PeterMitchell-506-564364 A hot looking hairdresser becomes an overnight sensation, thanks to a certain part of her anatomy, and you know what I'm talking about. Think "Me and Him", except this is the female version. This extra oddity of a film works of course, 'cause of it's premise. Penelope's talking anatomy (I can't use the exact word) earns her successes, like five film deals, but also causes her complications, particularly with her love life as her anatomy gets mistaken for her real voice. There's a funny scene early in the film, a great one liner if I ever heard one, involving the Star Spangled Ballad. She also has trouble at the workplace, with one of her female customers, a lesbian, thanks to Penelope, and you can guess the rest. Chatterbox is a light adult comedy, and if you're expecting nudity or full frontal sex, you'll really be severely disappointed. Something different and smart, with some deliciously funny moments, but really this totals to nothing special.

jerry veneman Chatterbox is a great movie. Candice Rialson's performance is spot on. The musical intermezzo's a hilarious, especially the one where Candice performs before a live audience for the first time. And the happy end (with a twist) is just great. The overall tone is tongue in cheek. It's obviously they weren't trying to make Citizen Cane here.For those people who say this is a bad movie, I'm just wondering. Did they really expect an insightful drama about a woman with a singing vagina? It is what it is: a wonderful piece of cult-trash cinema. And I loved every minute of it...

Woodyanders Sweet hairdresser Penny Pittman (a typically charming and radiant performance by lovely blonde 70's drive-in cinema starlet Candice Rialson) discovers that her vagina can talk and sing. Penny's helpful agent/psychiatrist Dr. Pearl (affably essayed by Larry Gelman) turns Penny and her foul-mouthed speaking cervix (who's affectionately named Virginia) into an unlikely reluctant celebrity: Penny and Virginia appear as guests on Professor Irwin Corey's TV show, record a funky hit disco song called "Wang Dang Doodle," have sex with a whole high school basketball team, pop up on a game show, and star in a musical porno feature surrounded by dancing and singing men dressed up in chicken costumes (this latter particular jaw-dropping sequence rates as the definite gut-busting surreal highlight of the entire picture). Director Tom DeSimone, working from a cheerfully crass and silly script by Mark Rosin and Norman Yonemoto, milks a lot of infectiously naughty laughs out of the one-joke premise, maintains a zippy pace throughout, and keeps the raunchiness at bay by effectively creating a surprisingly zany and good-natured tone. Besides the talking vagina gimmick, we also get hilariously bawdy jokes about predatory lesbians, preening homosexuals, and, of course, sex. The ravishing Rialson just barely manages to retain her dignity in the rather thankless lead role and bares her lovely body as often as possible. The supporting cast is likewise up to par: Perry Bullington as Penny's clumsy nice guy lover Ted, Jane Kean as Penny's proud, supportive mother Eleanor Pittman, Rip Taylor as Penny's effeminate gay boss Mr. Jo, Cynthia Hoppenfeld as Penny's loyal best gal pal Linda Ann, Michael Taylor as hunky romantic stud Dick, and Robert Lipton as pretentious hardcore film director Jon David. Tak Fujimoto's polished cinematography gives the movie a nice slick look. Moreover, the boom mike dips into the top of the frame at alarmingly frequent intervals. A choice wacky chunk of vintage 70's lowbrow humor.
