Truly Dreadful Film

Let's be realistic.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

This is one of those movies that are clearly first class trash in a very bad and a very "good" way. It was made in the same year I was born, and unfortunately left an impact crater on my mind about thirteen +/- years later. Funny thing is, I never knew how deep this crater was until I saw it again forty years later with a few friends and a lot of beer.It is telling that I did NOT remember how bad the plot, the comedy part, the music and the acting was (with the exception of Gloria Guida who's just playing herself), but everything else. And it is some weird trash, I mean, an Italian sex comedy from the 70s – how much farer can you go? Watching this movie again was like watching something from another universe far, far away. It was so intense, so mind melting, it caused such a massive flashback, that I'm sitting here now an trying to write a review. For just this movie. But give me a minute to think about it …Everything makes a lot of sense if you assume that Loredana (a name I've never heard again btw) is a young, sexy and utterly sociopathic girl with no remorse and that the whole movie is following closely her point of view. Seriously. For sociopaths a lot of stuff we normal people do and say just looks pretty ridicules, just like a very bad comedy. She's manipulating the guys around her from the very beginning and obviously having a lot of fun doing it. She's playing the nice, naive girl but behind her beautiful blue eyes hides the dark coldness of a massive black hole: her ego. Which is making her think that she's the lonely center of this whole, bizarre thing called "life". Everything she says and does serves her only goal to get satisfied in one or another way - the world has to kneel before her greatness. At the end one of her "toys" (the "American" guy) gets almost killed in some race with another "toy" and when she gets it told her only response is: "Is he dead?", with a very slight, very disturbing tone in her voice. At least in the German subbed version.And on top of this: I strongly believe the writer and especially the director knew pretty well what they were doing. No, I did not take drugs while watching it … well, besides alcohol and uhm, some vegetables. That doesn't count. :-)If you never saw this "master piece", don't give it a try. No, don't even think about it. I'm damned to have watched it with the innocent eyes of a thirteen year old boy and it did harm my life after-wards. I should have listened to my parents, they were right: Do not touch the TV in the late night.What glorious times. What a shame. What a shock.

Ok, ok, ok! No one will ever tell you this is a masterpiece in cinema's history, but consider this: have you ever seen Gloria Guida? Well, she was the most wanted italian babe of the 70's and in this movie she's at her best. All the film is built around her nude body. Do the rest matter?

I agree that this is a boring film, redeemed by Gloria getting her kit off quite a few times. Also, not to be missed by connoissuers of bad hair cuts. I can't believe people actually walked around like this. Also notable for one of the first appearances of Ilona Staller, notorious as an Italian member of parliament.

This is a coming-of-age story about a girl who can't decide whether she should go for her classmate or an older man (her father's business associate). The film lacks artistic interest and the dialogue is boring. The "comedy" scenes are either ridiculous or flat, and are similar to what you might find on a TV sitcom. It seemed like "Loredona" (Gloria Guida) did a lot of driving around on a moped going nowhere.
