Decontraida, absurda, sin circunloquios, va más lejos que en otras de sus películas avant garde, se divierte con Mastroianni, con el odio de raza pero vacilón de Tognazzi, hasta con la muerte de Deneuve. Reggiani semidesnudo, como la voy del indio loco, marca el espíritu de la farsa

Description: In the surreal, satirical comedy Don't Touch the White Woman!, Italian director Marco Ferrreri presents his take on the classic American Western, sympathizing with the Indians instead of the cowboys. And this time the Battle of Little Big Horn, the scene of General Custer's humiliating defeat by the Indians, rages at the demolished site of a formerly thriving market place in Paris. Westerns have always played loose with the facts, but this 1973 film "is hilariously and deliberately erroneous" (Time Magazine).

And this time the Battle of Little Big Horn, the scene of General Custer's humiliating defeat by the Indians, rages at the demolished site of a formerly thriving market place in Paris. Westerns have always played loose with the facts, but this 1973 film "is hilariously and deliberately erroneous" (Time Magazine). Marcello Mastroianni is a preening, primping General Custer who is transported to Paris in the Nineteen Seventies to clear the area of Indians. Michel Piccoli is an effeminate Buffalo Bill, who performs at Parisian nightclub, and Ugo Tognazzi is an Indian scout who runs a shop where atrocities are among the souvenirs and white women are the sweatshop labor. Catherine Deneuve is the seemingly demure frontier gal who literally picks up Custer and throws him into bed where she ravishes him before the Indians do. Recently shown in the United States for the first time, the film works on several levels. In addition to being a comedy that indulges in slapstick and sheer buffoonery, it takes a wry look at many of the political and social issues, particularly Indian genocide, that shaped America.
