What's Up Tiger Lily? (1966)
One of Toho Studios' International Secret Police series, the
already tongue-in-cheek Key of Keys, becomes an even more demented
parody of Sixties spy film conventions in the hands of
comedian/dubbing director Woody Allen, in this side-splittingly,
funny melding of Eastern and Western pop cultures.
"Who's got that recipe for egg salad?"
With music by the Lovin' Spoonful, and starring Tatsuya Mihashi,
with Akiko Wakabayashi and Mie Hama (the Bond girls in You Only
Live Twice.)
