 <\/p>\n

When a primitive Neanderthal scratched petroglyphs to chronicle the day’s hunting with Fred & the boys, you knew someone was standing nearby, with a giant ember glowing brightly above his creative, crafty little head. The adult mind will always be among the first to exploit the potential of a new technological milestone \u2013 from still images to moving film, home video, DVD, and most explosively the Internet \u2013 and make it naughty, but fun.<\/p>\n

As Cult Epic’s debut collection of vintage erotica demonstrates, Europe’s more open attitudes towards sex went beyond simplistic, monotonous, erotic loops. Recording quaint vignettes of undress, and in rare cases concocting short stories with occasional costumes and sets, the French erotica in this collection (some apparently from the 1920s) has a certain charm; it’s not unusual to have subjects laughing at each other and to the camera person, and though everything ultimately ends in a horizontal position (some featuring familiar hardcore visuals), the use of indoor and outdoor locations adds to the overall quaintness.<\/p>\n

The quality of the films is variable, as some were clearly in delicate shape after years of cloistered usage, and others were photographed by novices. Whether the footage was commercially or privately developed, the filmmakers already had a language template, refined and standardized by studio filmmakers.<\/p>\n

22 films are collected in this set: \u201cDeux petites bonnes\u201d (2:29), \u201cLa vie Parisienne\u201d (2:14), \u201cLa sauvageonne\u201d (2:04), \u201cLes aventures de Ben Ali\u201d (2:22), \u201cScenes d’interieur de Mr. X\u201d (12:19), \u201cScenes d’exterieur de Mr. X\u201d (10:07), \u201cEtape en foret\u201d (4:04), \u201cFlagellation en bord de Marne\u201d (1:11), \u201cJeunes filles sans uniforme\u201d (1:16), \u201cDressge au foret\u201d (3:23), \u201cSous les caresses du martinet\u201d (2:21), \u201cNudist bar\u201d (6:43), \u201cEn vacances\u201d (6:00), \u201cLa nouvelle scretaire\u201d (8:35), \u201cTrois gouttes de rosee\u201d (2:44), \u201cLa grande bagarre\u201d (8:11), \u201cLa tournee des grands duc\u201d (5:40), \u201cLe verrous\u201d (1:43), \u201cMousquetaire au restaurant\u201d (9:12), \u201cAmour et ballerie\u201d (5:42), \u201cMektoud, fantaisie Arabe\u201d (6:10), \u201cLe sage de butterfly\u201d (5:58), \u201cSurpris par le garde-champetre\u201d (4:58).<\/p>\n

A good measure of the collection also preserves heterosexual and gay copulation. In \u201cLa sage de butterfly\u201d \u2013 riffing the famous Madame Butterfly tale \u2013 the returning American plays with a servant lad before finally reprising his relationship with Butterfly (herself having kept busy with the maid). \u201cMektoud, fantaisie Arabe,\u201d another elaborate short, showcases both persuasions, and the Deco-styled \u201cNudist bar\u201d deals with a familiar threesome during the after hours.<\/p>\n

The best short on this wildly entertaining disc is \u201cMousquetaire au restaurant,\u201d where costumed performers offer their home (and selves) to a traveling musketeer. Though many other films in the collection contain French intertitles (sadly, without English subtitles, so bilingual viewers will reap the intended gags), the makers of this spoof not only inscribed each card with wit and bawdiness, but drew amusing caricatures of the unfolding events.<\/p>\n

Cult Epics\u2019 Vintage Erotica series is comprised of Anno 1920<\/a><\/strong>, Anno 1930<\/strong>, Anno 1940<\/a><\/strong>, Anno 1950<\/a><\/strong>, Anno 1960<\/a><\/strong> , and Anno 1970<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n
