Flirtatious Girl (Cilveli Kız) (translated)

Türker İnanoğlu directed and produced Cilveli Kız, a Yeşilçam film from 1969 with a screenplay by Fuat Özlüer. Blending comedy with sentimental drama, it stars Filiz Akın and Kartal Tibet. The colour film runs about ninety minutes and was made by Erler Film.

In a poor Istanbul neighbourhood, four cheerful friends make a living selling razor blades, socks and laundry goods on the street: the beautiful Kiraz (Filiz Akın), the moustached Ömer (Hüseyin Baradan), the 150-kilo Tosun (Necdet Tosun) and the featherweight Pire Mehmet (Moris). Kiraz's father (Mümtaz Ener), who walks on crutches, can only be operated on in England, for 50,000 lira. Across the city, the millionaire Hacı Hayrullah Akay (Hulusi Kentmen) wants to stop his son Aydın (Kartal Tibet) marrying the nightclub singer Okşan (Feri Cansel). Meeting the peddlers on a ferry deck, he makes his offer: Kiraz will move into the neighbouring mansion as a society lady, her friends posing as cook, driver and servant.

Kiraz hesitates, but 50,000 lira up front and 50,000 more afterwards persuade her. The plan works, yet midway through the game Kiraz and Aydın really fall for each other and the deal takes an unexpected turn. The music is by Metin Bükey and the cinematography by Çetin Gürtop. As was usual then, many roles were dubbed by other voices.
