101 Acts of Love

1971

All the videos from this film

The last of the Eric Jeffrey Haims movies in this batch is title 101 Acts of Love.  Now, here we have to deal with a little fact: all his films are rated X, but this is the only one I've seen with contact between genitals.  You know?  Insertion and all sort of thing?  101 Acts pretends to be a lesson in sexology as wives played by

go to some therapist for help in something.  The beginning and end of the movie reveal these three women in non-explicit mating behaviors, whereas the middle chunk has a series of randomly inter-cut explicit scenes from a bunch of folks.

Annette Michael is part of this middle group but her scenes are shot and cut to be less than fully pornographic, if you catch my drift.

It is possible that Mr. Haims other movies - Clock Work Blue and Jekyll and Hyde Portfolio - also exist in a form that had them earn their X rating.  That the movies are peopled with pornstars makes it not only possible but also likely they had been hardcore productions once upon a time.  So, maybe the disks I bought were edited, toned-down versions, meant for folks who like their sex soft.  That would explain the under-use of Rene Bond in Jekyll and Hyde, and the really odd editing of most scenes in Clock Work Blue - the hard stuff got chopped out.  If that were so, we might have one of the few examples in which the hardcore version of a movie is the superior product.
