Kendall Harvey III (Judson Todd) is filthy rich, and he's not afraid to
spend his money (or part of it) to get women he fancies into his bed.
Click (Jim Chisholm) is a young man who knows any number of beautiful
young women, so it's only natural to offer his services - for a price - to
Kendall. Plus, Click has the hots for Kendall's private secretary, Polly
(Patti Paget).
Bobbi (Joanna Mills) is an up-and-coming painter, but like all young
painters, she's notoriously short on money, so when her friend Click hooks
her up with Kendall, she - always having been promiscuous - gladly
accepts.
Peggy (Loraine Claire), Bobbi's best friend, eventually catches the eye
of Kendall, but she's a married woman - and nothing could make her cheat
on her husband Roger (George Wolfe) ... nothing ?
Well, not entirely nothing: When her hubby at one point loses a big
contract, virtually has to declare bancrupcy and starts drinking heavily,
only Kendall can save him, and he agrees to do so ... for a price: Kendall
arranges it for Roger to be out of town for 48 hours to sign a new
contract, and wants to have Peggy for these 48 hours to you-know-what
behind her hubby's back.
To her dismay, Peggy becomes part of Kendall's orgy-life, but she puts
up with it for her husband's sake, but when he comes back, she is overcome
by her bad conscience and confesses everything to him ... and he leaves
her on the spot.
Click meanwhile tries to move in on Polly, but she not only resists his
charms, she even defends herself with his (!) bikechain - which makes
Click a tad suspicious, so he sends her a girl to see if ... and
indeed, she turns out to be a closet lesbian.
Kendall meanwhile feels his party life becoming more and more empty,
and he realizes the only woman he didn't feel lonely with was Peggy - so
he invites her back, and since she has just been left by her hubby, she
accepts, too, on the condition he will meet her without his private
secretary and the whole crowd who always party and pick up girls with him.
Kendall gladly agrees to it, but the same day, Click tries to get him into
bed with Polly's lesbian lover, just out of revenge, and since Kendall
never was one to miss an opportunity, he tries to squeeze in the girl just
before the date with Peggy ... which of course ends in desaster when he
gets caught both by Polly - whose heart gets broken by this - and Peggy -
who suddenly realizes she just has to leave Kendall's world behind and try
and reconcile with her husband.
One of Joe Sarno's earlier erotic films which might not feature as much
nudity and sex as his films from the 1970's - but hey, it was 1966, so
what do you want - but otherwise, Sarno's trademarks are all in place: a
convoluted soap opera style plot ultimately revolving around nothing else
but sex, a slick direction, careful camerawork not usually seen in this
kind of film, and of course any number of scenes that require the actors
to actually act (which they do with different levels of success)
and not just to show their goods.
Not one of Sarno's best films, probably, and certainly not one of his
more explicit ones (but as I said, it was 1966), but not bad either
and certainly worth a look
