L'école du sexe

I had decided to watch this on the basis that Nosher Powell was in this, the only other movie I have seen with him was Eat The Rich. He seemed to be mainly cast as a background heavy in things like The Sweeney, but as his name was prominent on the title it was obvious he had a larger part to play.

I am also interested in older UK movies, these sex based comedies seemed to be a big thing in the 70s and watching this it was hard to tell if it was 60s or 70s, however it was made in 69. No pun intended.

For me there wasnt a single person in this movie I recognised which suggested a low budget.

The story is about some rich gentry who is in court for running a brothel after being fleeced by a line of women leaving him broke, so he turns to immoral earnings. The bulk of the story being a flashback. Very little happens however. Its basically a set of scenes were women find a reason to strip under the guise of them being trained to seduce rich men.

What is striking is how the bodies of women have changed since the 60s. The women here have never set foot in a multi gym so their bodies are much more natural looking.

Overall the tone of this is a bit Benny Hill but without the silent treatment or the obvious humour. There is no sex on show however there is full on nudity in some scenes, that will be why its a X rating then.

Like most exploitation movies the poster promises more than it delivers, its just not engaging or entertaining.

As for Nosher, yes he has a prominent speaking role and looks very young in this. Despite being a bit part actor in the main he is probably the biggest name in this.

Hard to recommend expect for the curious....
