Oui, Girls

Fred Lincoln's features generally have one-time spouse Patti Rhodes as chief collaborator, but for this well-made theatrical film co-star Tiffany Clark is the creative force. She gets many credits and does a fine job of acting as well.

It's all about swingers, portraying the hedonistic life style and dramatic complications stemming from same. Paul Thomas and Anna Ventura star, and many of the themes would be the staple of PT's best work as a director himself in years to come.

With a cock and bull story about investigating a client for supposedly murdering his wife for insurance money, PT drags his girlfriend to a Swingers retreat, shot at a real life place Circle S Ranch. She poses as his wife, and her jealousy, well acted by usually eye candy Anna, is a venerable movie cliche that is still useful, as witness the weekly friction/attraction between the lead players on the current hit TV series "Whiskey Cavalier".

Michael Morrison is odd casting as the target of PT's investigation, married to luscious Lisa De Leeuw. Other principal players include Tiffany Clark and her husband Michael Slota, as well as icon Sharon Kane and porn's earliest Asian male stud Ken Starbuck, all into swinging.

Lincoln keeps it playing like a mainstream movie, but with XXX content. PT's performance is quite poor, unusual for one of Adult Cinema's finest actors. Cinematography is by the great Harry Flecks= Joao Fernandes, Damiano's ground-breaking d.p.
