Pleasures of a Woman

Pleasures of a WomanRetro-Seduction Cinema continues its series of rescued classics by San Francisco-based, ’70s grindhouse auteur Nick Phillips paired with the studio’s contemporary updates.

This outing, buxom sex siren Uschi Digart plays a recently widowed "lesbian pill head" who has a funny way of mourning. Namely, she spends an enraptured week schooling her nubile niece (Lynn Harris) in the rites of sapphic seduction and the erotic gratification potential of stylish, patten-leather footware. Nick’s sly morality tale is told via howl-worthy narration by the niece, who feigns innocence with her aunt, and expresses the self-loathing required for a socially acceptable look at this "dark, ugly, degenerate world."

Such as, "We were two naughty girls behind a locked door. Thrusting. Moaning. Discovering. Playing with and at lust. Perverse lust!" And, "I was having a third degree attack of conscience. Funny it never happened when we were on top of one another!"

12 breasts. Advanced lesbian tongue rasslin. Coital acrobatics. Excessive lipstick to the nipple. Gratuitous shoreline stroll. One furry ’70s porno stud. Drug-induced spazzing.
