Le hot stuff
12-string4 March 2001
Despite the IMDb entry, Candy Samples is *not* in this picture. It's a French film. Sylvia Bourdon and Béatrice Harnois star as sisters confusingly named Candice and Candy (they look more like mom and daughter, age-wise, and may well have been before this was dubbed into English). Candice is editor of a porno mag and also frigid sexually, for reasons we eventually learn. 18ish Candy is not at all frigid, as we find out fairly quickly. Story takes them, plus some of Candice's employees and Candy's best schoolgirl friend, through a string of sexual encounters. And eventually everything works out.

There's not a lot of plot, admittedly, so the dubbing doesn't get too much in the way. Film is significantly more professional looking than the average US hardcore film of that period, the cast is attractive, and the porn quality is first-rate, though quite mild by present-day Euro smut standards. Gabriel Pontello turns up as a gynecologist (that's scary!) and Jacques Insermini, the French answer to Ernie Borgnine (but what was the question?) also appears.

Film seems never to have been released in the US by any of the major adult video companies but was briefly available in the late 80s on a minor label. My copy runs about 85 minutes and seems a bit abridged during the last third. This film will likely be hard to find but is well worth the attention of Golden Age fans. I give it a 6 on the IMDb scale; on my own 1-4 meter, turn-on value ***, quality ***.
