Tiffany Jones is a 1973 British comedy film directed and produced by Pete Walker and starring Anouska Hempel.[1] It was written by Alfred Shaughnessy based on the British syndicated newspaper comic strip Tiffany Jones by Pat Tourret and Jenny Butterworth.

Plot

The film focuses on Tiffany Jones, a photo model in Swinging London, who has a double life as a secret agent. The plot follows her as she tries to topple an Eastern European dictatorship in the fictional country Zirdana.

Cast

Critical reception

Monthly Film Bulletin said "The Daily Mail's amiable comic-strip, involving the breakneck adventures and unrequited loves of a London model and aimed predominantly at a female readership, has been adapted to fit the baser requirements of commercial cinema. Tiffany herself has been transformed (not disagreeably) into a walking wet-dream in the Mayfair Penthouse style, repeatedly losing her clothes but never her virtue, and provoking her model friends to strip off their garden-party clothes on a thinly scripted pretext. In place of humour, the production has recourse to some of the more lethal devices of British farce – funny foreigners and inflated third-form puns. Beginning with a scene which sends up the absurdities of advertising films, Tiffany Jones derives its visual and histrionic style precisely from such films, and seems also to have one eye on the resuscitation of the long-defunct myth of Swinging London. Something of the spirit of the original has nevertheless been retained in the jolly scrapes of the storyline, and there is still an ! unattainable lover and a dogged photographer-admirer, though the latter bears little resemblance to the square-jawed dream-boy of the cartoon. Still, the fresh and spontaneous presence of Anouska Hempel saves the production from complete collapse under the burden of its painstakingly selected formulae."[2]

The Radio Times Guide to Films gave the film 1/5 stars, writing: "Made in the days of dolly birds and psychedelia, this pathetic attempt to produce an Avengers clone, but with more nudity, is adapted from a newspaper's comic strip and has Anouska Hempel helping a denim-clad prince regain his throne from a wicked dictator. At least Ray Brooks has the talent to seem embarrassed, but nothing can faze director Pete Walker."[3]
