Tinto Brass erotic dramedy which, I felt, embraces the joys of sex as Serena Grandi gleefully portrays Miranda, a sexually adventurous war widow, operating a café/bar in a little village with a lush countryside as a beautiful back drop to the film's seedy leanings. I can't recall a camera embellishing the female vagina as much as Tinto's lens hones in on Grandi's. Didn't care for the arm pit hair, but I chalked that up to realism. Various men Grandi's Miranda has bedded wish for hand in marriage yet she's having too much fun screwing to actually take those longings from her suitors seriously. I don't think there's an angle Tinto Brass doesn't try in capturing Grandi's crotch in all it's hairy glory. There's a whimsical score to the film which I feel also captures the spirited joy Brass had behind this film's merry naughtiness. Lots of sex and perversion. To give you a taste of what this film is like..there's a scene between Miranda and her pal(..who lost her husband to the war, also)where they interpret what men's asses look like behind their swimming trunks..and Tinto Brass being the provocateur that he is, shows us.

I must admit, though, that after looking at a vagina long enough, it was growing a bit tiresome, but I do realize that the director was operating without restraint showing the aspects of woman..the curvaceous Grandi in this case..he enjoys, spreading his love to us.
