tendre corinne and other movies.

[fromitaly]

hi all !
I have some questions.
I read for "tendre corinne" review:
"One of the disturbingly misogynistic French porn films of the early 80s...", i never have seen this film and i wonder which kind of movies they are, anyone can list these titles? i'm curious about them.
a second question:
for "Les Poss?d?es du diable" directed by Jess Franco, in the notes there is: horror / hard porn...is this true?

thanks a lot in advance and sorry for my english.

ciao

I suppose I meant that in some films of the period there was an assumption that women would enjoy being raped. Several of the films of Michel Ricaud would qualify and one of the first Dorcel films Les Mauvaises rencontres. I don't have a comprehensive list, sorry.

I think that in some versions there is some hardcore, yes.

In this particular one, "Tendre Corinne", two out of five scenes are of some sort of non consentual. In one, Carole Pierac is raped. In another, Claudia van Statt is erroneously taken by Alban and a young guy as being Sophie, a hired whore; after some resistance, she agrees to have sex with both (and Sophie and Alban again).
BTW, the final Alban-Carole scene is a great one. Too bad she was half shaved.

To rape Carole Pierrac: that would be a noteworthy feat, almost as raping Vanessa del Rio.

i got tendre corinne.
I ve found it "erotic" in some parts for real raw sex , not as the usual boring stuff.
it's just my opinion.
anyway, what about modern violent shit? "slap happy" for example...how you call it?

And my notes were just my opinion. I also found parts of erotic. I agree most modern stuff is awful - and for various reasons, including the abusiveness of some of it, but also because it is boringly repetitive.
