Hey Scoop!
It just hit me as I was gazing (again!) at the pictures of Katherine
LeFebvre from June's Playboy that she looks a lot like Kim Raver from 24
(Audrey Raines). I mean they could be sisters, even though Kim is a lot less
full chested than Katherine. I have attached a comparison.
What do you think?

Night Calls: the Movie
Night Calls: The Movie (1998) - Julia and Doria from Playboy's series Night
Calls take a road trip to find Juli's purpose in life. On the advice of the
fairy that appeared to Juli in a dream, they head North. Their producer sends
Gina Everett with them to make sure they make it back to work on Monday. The
two relate past sexual exploits, and Gina Everett has some sexual exploits of her
own. They meet a couple in need of sex counseling (Ceci Tailor and Daniel
Namath) and Julia decides that hands-on sex counseling is the mission she has
been seeking. Before the journey is over, there is sex in groups of 1 to 6
people.
It is fun couples erotica, and is rather empowering in its treatment of
female sexuality, making it a good choice for a date night. Colors are
well-saturated, they made no effort to get overly fancy with the editing, and
the entire thing is played tongue-in-cheek.
This is a C.
I covered this film from a budget copy many years ago. Since that time, it
has become rare and collectable, and the copy I had is worth nearly $100.00 on
the used market. Rare Licensed DVDs now has it available on a dual region DVD
(1 and 4) with an English soundtrack, and optional Spanish subtitles. The
transfer is not at all bad, although the original photography had a tendency
toward blown highlights.
IMDb readers say 4.3.

SherryBaby
Recently released from prison after serving a three-year sentence for drugs and
theft, Sherry (Maggie Gyllenhaal) finds that the outside world
is even more harrowing than the one she'd faced behind bars as she is
challenged at every turn by parole officers, her hunger for drugs, men
willing to exploit her when they know they hold the power, and above all
her incessant struggle to integrate herself back into the life of Alexis,
the baby girl she left behind.

Amorestremo
AKA @the dangerous sex date
http://imdb.com/title/tt0303645/
According to the plot "Xenia, the librarian of the university, schedules a S&M
blind date with a masochist to satisfy her fantasies and sexual desires.
They spend the night in his apartment having kinky sex and the next morning
the masochist is dead with a slashed throat." Since this is a typical
Italian sex thriller, Xenia is the main suspect. In order to clear
herself, she teams up with the dead man's friend to track down the murderer.
The film is also known as "@the dangerous sex date" since Xenia made her s&m
dates at an online service which looks like an old fashioned bulletin board and
it also transpires that the dead man was an undercover police officer investigating this online
service.
Made in 2001, the film shows that its makers were techno-phobic as well as
s&m-phobic, almost to the point of warning anyone that online dating and s&m
could make you the prey of schizophrenic serial killers. This does not stop the
film from delivering a voyeuristic look at s&m nightclubs, strip joints,
brothels and their inhabitants, so that it will satisfy the sexual yearnings of
the people who decide to watch it. After all, why else bother picking up a movie
like this? This leads me to believe that a) Either the film-makers "condemn" and
despise the very audience they try to attract with this movie or b) The film's
audience feels guilty for their s&m inclinations and therefore needs this
"condemnation."
Surprisingly the director of the film is a woman, Maria Martinelli. The
famous porn star Rocco Siffredi has a supporting role, but gets top billing
because he's
the only "name" star in this affair. Stefania Bonafede, the real protagonist,
was very good and looked even better.

Under Surveillance
http://imdb.com/title/tt0103161/
"Robert Davi at his best!" crows the only IMDb comment for this film.
That says it all.
I think Davi, along with Lou Diamond Philips and a few others, belongs to that
team of actors that appear exclusively in bad films. So if you see them you know
you 're watching a potboiler, like this one,
in which Davi's ex-partner is murdered and Davi tries to find who did it.
Spoiler: it's Melody Anderson, his ex-partner's wife. He discovers this in
the end , but not before he has a long erotic scene with her. It's a
z-movie with awful production values but I liked Melody. She gave a convincing
and sexy performance.

Comments in yellow...
Today, the FDA is expected to give approval to Lybrel, a birth control pill
that women take for at least a year at a time, and it ends their periods
completely. Proponents claim the menstrual cycle isn't necessary, and the pill
can safely end a monthly ordeal. Critics say that not enough is known about the
effects of unnatural menstrual suppression on the rest of the body, and it could
pose long-term health dangers. But there'll be no shortage of guinea pigs:
surveys show that up to 50 percent of women would prefer not to have monthly
periods.
* And up to 100 percent of men would prefer that, too.
* If they just wait long enough, that problem will solve itself.
Michael Jackson's attorney announced that Michael had reached a confidential
settlement of a lawsuit against a company that plans to auction 20,000 items of
memorabilia obtained from a warehouse in a
separate case against Michael's parents. Michael dropped his opposition after
the sellers said that out of respect to him, they would not sell or make public
certain items that might be potentially embarrassing, such as sealed records
from his molestation trials, jars of skin whitener, sex aids and Jackson's own
paintings of naked boys.
* Or other items too embarrassing to mention.
Because of all the feral cats, a species of Florida Keys rabbits named after
Hugh Hefner has dropped in population by 50 percent in two years and is in
danger of extinction.
* So ironically, the problem is a pussy overdose.
