Parkins, Duke, and Tate spend so much time eye-batting, skirt-twitching, and soap opera-emoting that you'd SWEAR they're actually drag queens, while tough-gal types Susan Hayward and Lee Grant butch it up to a truly frightening degree.
The occasional musical turns (would you believe Hayward as a Broadway musical star a la Merman?) are ridiculously written and atrociously performed, and the 1960s mindset simply adds to strangeness of it all.
