Burning Lips
added: 2018-03-01 This movie was filmed both in soft and hard versions, and the latter is famous today for being one of the first hardcore porn films in Italy. But a lot of soft Italian sex films at that time had hardcore sex inserts spliced into them when sold in more liberal markets--the only thing different here was that these inserts apparently featured one of original talent, Claudia Beccarie, a big porn star at the time in France. Generally, I prefer the 70's European style of having anonymous hardcore types do the inserts, and leaving the acting to those that can actually do it, but Beccarie is not bad here surprisingly. I saw the soft version (the hard version, believe it or not, is a very rare collector's item), but even that had plentiful nudity by Fani, Beccarie, Lindt, and Dionisio, so I'm not complaining on that count. The real negative is the ending, which I think even someone fluent in Italian would find confounding. Fani's strong performance and Beccarie's adequate performance ultimately come to naught in this bizarre ending. But up until then it's kind of an interesting film.
