Story Synopsis:
After The Fox is a wacky comedy that stars Peter Sellers as the multi-faced thief Aldo “the Fox” Venucci. When millions of dollars in gold bullion has been stolen in Cairo, authorities know the one thief capable of such a crime is in jail. But that criminal strolls past prison guards disguised as his doctor. The Fox must quickly devise a plan to seize the gold. Posing as a flamboyant director, Aldo enlists the help of his voluptuous sister Gina Romantica (Britt Ekland) and the egotistical film star Tony Powell (Victor Mature in a hilarious role) to film a movie about (what else?) a gold theft.
LaserDisc Picture:
The 2.32:1 picture looks dated and dull, exhibiting undersaturated color fidelity with subdued fleshtones and colors, but generally deep blacks. Had the colors been more fully saturated, the picture would appear much more natural. Images are occasionally sharp and detailed with mediocre contrast and shadow detail. Slight noise and artifacts are apparent throughout.
LaserDisc Soundtrack:
The soundtrack is undistinguished monaural that sounds compressed.
