"Leave this place, or you will become just another image in the tower room. Go away! You will die here if you do not!"
The strange warning had come over the loud-speakers the moment I arrived at the Gibbons' chalet. Although they were visibly upset, neither my husband-to-be nor his relatives would tell me what the warning meant.
The first chance I had, therefore, I went hunting for the tower room. In it was a breath-taking doll house, a miniature of the chalet. Beautifully made dolls represented each member of the household, and at first sight it was enchanting. But when my future mother-in-law found me studying it, she was furious. "It is ugly and portends evil and death," she said. "That's all you have to know. Stay away from it."

More of goat's than a Lambs' frolic about the shoddier aspects of show business, this one has an obstinately crude energy which keeps it refueled and while there will be those to find it tough and tasteless, on the other hand there are some funny moments. Maybe even a little sad since Siam Miami with her ""all out sexy style"" is the helpless victim of her appeal, a little dumb, and definitely dirty under that ""lilac froth of a dress."" She's also a natural patsy for Ziggy Motley, who is developing her, and Stewart Dodge who owns her (and has a proprietary personal interest in all his properties). During the course of her ascent Ziggy assigns a young man Barney to watch her weight, her drug habits, and her hygiene, and before long she falls in love with him. When they separate, Siam Miami is seen near the George Washington bridge, later at the Regency with Dodge which is a sexual disaster, still later cracking up altogether, and finally making a Garland comeback and it's a question whether Barney or an ambulance will pick up the pieces ... As for Mr. Renek, he makes the most of the cheap twang and carnal tang of Siam. Spiked Moxie and all set for that paperback booking.
