Merkins - A film search

[clueless]

Reading the posts about merkins in the other thread, I remember I saw them in a film (although I've never heard the word before). Unfortunately I cannot remember the title. It was set in Rome in 1945 and dark haired prostitutes used blond merkins to attract Black American soldiers. I can't even remember if it was an American or an Italian film and I've been trying to remember the title since I read those posts. Does anyone know?

I used to think a merkin was a vegetable of some kind.

LOL!! That's a gerkin- a small sweet pickle.

Oh-I thought a Gurkha was an Indian soldier in the service of Britain during the 19th century. Not only that, but it's also an excellent cigar.

My little boy calls them berkins!
