Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005):
None of the work below is my own, but I'm collecting it all here in
one place, since I've already reviewed the film, which is still in
theaters. I liked
it a lot.
Here are several collages of Michelle
Monaghan done by various people. The last one, from LC, also
includes two other women from the movie, Tanya Reichert
and Shannyn Sossamon
Finally, here is a
zipped .wmv of the
Monaghan scene.

In regards to
FANTASM COMES AGAIN, Angela Menzies-Wills was something of a
70s/early 80s soft-core movie icon in Australia. She appeared
nude in FELICITY (1979) and COMING OF AGE (1986), and also had
small roles in sex romp PACIFIC BANANA. I was always
disappointed she did so little (i.e. no nudity) in FCA.
Speaking of FCA,
it's been released on a double-feature DVD with the original
FANTASM by Umbrella Entertainment in Australia (you're probably
well aware of that already). Umbrella's released a bunch of
obscure-but-classic 70s Aussie movies in recent years including
PACIFIC BANANA, THE TRUE STORY OF ESKIMO NELL (both soft-core
sex comedies), and horror flicks like THE CARS THAT ATE PARIS
and LONG WEEKEND. It's nice to see those gems again, all with
great special features.

PS Here are
some pics of Angela Menzies-Wills from COMING OF AGE (taken off
the videotape so quality is average). IMDb.com claims it's a
1986 movie, but I swear it came out in the early 80s.

Harry Potter has the biggest Friday, the biggest Saturday,

- It took in about $25.5 million over the weekend,
which is stronger than its U.S. performance. The
population of the USA is almost exactly five times that
of the UK (295 million version 59), so Potter's
performance in the UK is equivalent to more than $125
million for a weekend in the USA. No film has ever
reached that high in the States. The record is about
$115 million.

Baby Tramp (1975)
Baby Tramp (1975) is the third of a trilogy directed by Joe Sarno,
produced by Chris D. Nebe, and starring the Swedish bombshell, Marie Forsa.
Like the first two, it was shot in Germany, but in English. Producer Nebe
felt potential International sales would be higher if it was made in
English. He did have the original performers do a German dub. Neither Nebe
nor Sarno wanted to make a hard core film, which they consider cinematically
boring (I agree), yet they wanted the sex scenes to be believable. They
decided that the sex scenes would all be real, but shot to avoid the actual
penetration, and with no money shots.
To make sure their actors were "up" to the task, they hired Harry Reems
as the male lead, and Eric Edwards for the other male part. It was fairly
common then to have a so called soft X version of hard core films, often
only 10 minutes shorter than the XXX versions, As far as I know, this is the
only X film shot intentionally to be a soft X. The film was shot in Nebe's
upscale Munich apartment, and the Sarnos stayed there in a guest room. The
other residents of the building, rather than being upset, showed up to watch
the sex. It was shot in 35 mm, so there was a large crew, and the sex scenes
were done without clearing the set. According to Nebe, and what I saw,
orgasms were real, and Reems really outdid himself.
The story is simple. Forsa lives with her aunt and uncle on a farm, but
other than sex with her boy friend, Erik Edwards, she is bored to death and
anxious to see the world, so she hitches her way to Munich. Along the way,
she is picked up by a lingerie salesman, then Harry Reems, who is a
nightclub owner and a major heartbreaker. He moves in woman after woman,
soon tiring of them, and moving on to the next. Forsa becomes his flavor of
the week. She falls for him, but suffers the same fate as numerous other
girls.
It was almost as if this story was about the Reems character, although I
am certain it was written to focus on Forsa. Reems demonstrated all of his
sexual prowess in probably the hottest sex I have seen on screen, and is
often dripping with sweat by the end of a scene.
Forsa shows everything, as do several other actresses. Unfortunately,
there was no way to correlate cast members with characters.
Unfortunately, by 1975, soft core was becoming old news, replaced by hard
core and direct to video, or the film would have done much better. It is
rated 6.1 at IMDb, and has been released under numerous titles in different
versions, including a XXX one (with hard core inserts) that was not approved
by Sarno or Nebe. In the Seduction Cinema set of three films, it is called
Butterflies. This is a C+, as probably the best soft X film I have seen.

Today we have a variety of actresses in various
states of undress.
In Une Femme ou Deux (1985)
Sigourney Weaver shows breasts and maybe a bit
more to Gérard Depardieu. The film also
stars Dr. Ruth and is not available on DVD anywhere as far as I know. The
movie only aired late last night on German TV, so I still haven't had time to
see what is all about. I didn't know Sigourney and Gérard were so fluent in
German though...
In The Private Life of Samuel Pepys
(2003)
Lou Doillon, Jane Birkin's youngest daughter, bares her breasts in bed
with her lover. At the end of
clip 2 her lover leaps out of bed shouting
"Jane". I hope for Lou he wasn't calling her mother.
In Robert Aldrich's Choirboys (1977) we
have Phyllis Davis shaking her big'uns (1,
2 ), with pastied nipples too, to two
police officers. I don't think this one is available on DVD either.
I am sad to say that there isn't much to write
about Rome (2005) - Episode 4: Stealing from Saturn. Since there is
no female nudity, this episode might interest straight women and gay men
though, as Mark Anthony can be seen in all his full frontal glory in his
courtyard. Plotwise not much is happening. Caesar has entered Rome and tries
to buy his way into power without bloodshed. The gold from the treasury that
Titus Pullo handed over to him is very welcome. That's about all, except for
some trivia, that happens in this episode that dragged along for 55 minutes.
Maybe I'll have better luck with next week's episode.
To conclude my contribution this short clip of a
naked Elizabeth Shue in the warm and human drama Molly might make a
nice addition to Monday's Fun House.
