Labbra avide - original title

[alec]

Does anyone know the original title of a Marina Hedman film recently released on DVD with a new title, Labbra avide, obviously inserted (the background music stops while it is on screen) and no credits.

She is a manicurist in a hair dressing salon run by Mark Shannon. Clients, male and female, are taken behind a curtain, supposedly to have their hair washed, but there they receive 'extra' services.

Thanks.

Hello Alec,

There was a Paradiso short released in the late 1970's, obviously taken from a much longer film. The short was called Fick Figaro. It had an identical storyline to the one you describe, but I can't remember much about it. It was popular in the Soho cinema clubs of the time. Although the title was obviously German, I am not sure if the film was. On the balance of probabilities my confidence is not high that we are talking about the same film.

I don't think so. The DVD box gives 1981, but I don't trust that as Marina looks older than she would have been in 1981, which takes it even further away from your film.

Sorry Alec, I can't see any insert to my faith.

Do you mean Labbra avide is the original title?

I'm talking about what you call "inserts": there are not.
