The title, like Boccaccio 70, like Casanova 70, like De Sade, like Everything You Always Wanted to Know about Sex (But Were Afraid to Ask), is simply to set up an expectation of hot stuff. What actually awaits is a rosily photographed costume romance, set unconvincingly in the 16th Century, about a dancing girl, a virgin bride, a fatheaded king, and a Fabio-haired artist ("I used to worship inside temples, until I saw that everything around me was holy"). The filmmaker, Mira Nair, is a native of India, which gives her less excuse rather than more authority. (1997) — Duncan Shepherd
