Comedy

The most interesting aspect of The Swinger is the name of the character played by Ann-Margret: the former Ann Margaret Olsson essays the role of Kelly Olsson. A naive small-town girl, Kelly aspires to become a writer in the Big City.

When her stories are rejected because they aren't exciting and provocative enough, she decides to do some hands-on research by posing as the titular swinger. She is so successful at this subterfuge that Hefner-like publisher Anthony Franciosa makes it his mission in life to reform the fallen Kelly.

Didn't they do this one in the 1930s as Theodora Goes Wild, with Irene Dunne and Melvyn Douglas?
