The expectations going into to this were not high when I first rented this video back in 1988. I was overwhelmed. I had seen the overwrought pomposity that was Caligula, and was not impressed. Here is a delicacy that stimulated several areas of the cinematic pallette. It has fetching leads, a potent set of erotic images, a plausible period setting (with a interesting back-story), and most importantly, there is a genuine feeling of sweet innocence that permeates up to the very end. Some of the eroticism was too much, too soon, but in the end it served to underscore the chemistry between the lead characters. You just root for them to escape from all that debauchery. Aside from the silly idea of a gay man being "converted" while giving a woman a massage, the themes involved were challenging and asured for being so graphic. I have seen other European erotica since, but none that have been as endearing as Kaprisky and the assortment of frolicing thespians from Aphrodite. It would seem that 1982 was a very good year for Sex on film. It also saw the release of Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and AN Officer and A Gentleman. I can honestly say that I will always love these films.
