According to this cookie-cutter TV movie, every man needs a woman to put down his rampant chauvinism. Ken Berry is a swinging architect (yes, he has long sideburns) who doesn't believe that women should work. Enter Connie Stevens, a highly intelligent young lady whom Berry reluctantly hires as an assistant. There's lots of talk about women's liberation, but note how most of the liberated ladies wear miniskirts and go-go boots. Every Man Needs One is inexorably a product of the early 1970s. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
