She emerges from her first attempt with a drowsy Arabian sheik as pure as the driven snow and sets her sights instead on a Spanish bullfighter named Angel.

Reviews for Bolero
Bolero must rank as one of the worst major movies ever made. Many awful movies are at least funny in a campy sort of way. Bo and John Derek, however, make films so sincerely bad that they offer nothing in the way of relief.
Even showing lots of Bo Derek's beautiful nude body isn't enough to save Bolero from terminal boredom.
Cinema this toxic can either kill you with laughter or simply turn your brain into a pool of sex-obsessed pudding.
The real future of Bolero is in home cassette rentals, where your fast forward and instant replay controls will supply the editing job the movie so desperately needs.
Bolero salutes creativity as the universal language of hope, renewal and community.
For some reason, the movie's sex scenes, which are relatively few, have been directed as slapstick.
