Trivia
In an interview granted on the occasion of the release of this film, Serena Grandi described her character and the young protagonist's approach to erotic scenes, coming to the conclusion that shooting an erotic scene with a teenager is easier. "The teenager remains unconscious" - To the journalist who asked her the fateful question, she answered frankly. "It's more difficult with a professional because a teenager hasn't really understood the mechanisms of love or intercourse yet. He stays there not so much embarrassed but absolutely unconscious of what he is doing, maybe even a little annoyed, he lives it as a very simple thing, almost a game."

Quotes
La mère: [Last Lines] Don't forget! In the city there are many temptations for a young man. Especially in time of war.

Do they really want this ?

I think it is obvious that the story should be treated as a fantasy of a young boy, otherwise the sanity of the protagonists should be seriously questioned here.

But as a dream it is quite charming, the journey of the boy to the adulthood in the safe environment where everybody is friendly and supportive ( sometimes even a little too much).

And having Serena Grandi as a sensual guide it is a dream many would subscribe to.

There are plenty of funny moments in the historical ambient, actors wearing the clothes from the era and the copy I have seen was of a good quality, that should be enough to provide some entertainment.

The high rank notes are lowered by the incestuous topics, that does not fit for this genre of the movie.

Also, however it may be addressed to the novel, not the movie, the nickname young Don Juan is an abuse to the great literature protagonist who was everything, but a country retard.

Not like the English movie title is any better.
