Fanny Hill

Please do also see my review for the earlier version of this movie staring Lisa Foster as Fanny Hill. The background to my interest in the Fanny Hill movies is because of the book by John Cleland which I recently read, followed by watching the movie starring Lisa Foster, and now this version with Cheryl Dempsey. This is a very different version, or interpretation of an excellent book. In this version, Cheryl Dempsey provides the narration for the whole movie, well, actually, I don't know if it is actually her voice, but we hear no other actors' voice. It is very well done, considering the book itself was written in narration format, the narrator being Fanny Hill. It is well filmed, and has some very beautiful scenery and sets. The acting is average, but Cheryl clearly stood out, she is actually rather good, with out without her clothes.

This Cheryl Dempsey version is somewhat different from the Lisa Foster version. While this version is bright, cheery and colorful, the Lisa Foster version is darker and, dare I say it, more sinister. The nudity is mild in comparison to the earlier version, and although Cheryl Dempsey takes her clothes off quite often, she is not as frequently fully nude as Lisa Foster in the earlier version. They are both very good and beautiful actresses.

Both movies, though different, are clearly enjoyable, and I have rated both 10 out of 10.
