Six Easy Pieces

You have to really love Billy Lane to get through this, as he's the only male cast member and appears in every scene (sometimes offering no money shot because, well, 7 money shots in one day isn't exactly a reasonable request). Thankfully, I do like Billy quite a bit, and consider him quite the unsung stud from early 1970s LA adult film. He's introduced as your average Joe married man, with Orita de Chadwick as his wife offering him a very special breakfast to start the day. The two discuss his "new truck", and we soon learn he's essentially a door-to-door male prostitute, driving around town in a tricked-out van, complete with a wood-paneled bedroom in the back (obviously a set in a studio). The sameness of location can be wearying, but Billy's up to the task, delivering solidly in almost every scene, though it also becomes clear that he's getting tired in a few of them. Annette Michael is a dominant older woman client who refuses to let him orgasm (letting Billy off the hook for another money shot) and Nancy Martin is a romantic client who likes being showered with verbal affection during sex. Another unidentified actress is memorable as an overbearing verbal dynamo into anal sex.

Nothing in the film actually ties in to its title inspiration, FIVE EASY PIECES (1970), which is fine. There are some good musical choices during the sex scenes and a few intriguing technical moments (several crane shots and slow-motion). Altogether might've been worthy of some historical interest, but it just falls short, feeling too repetitive to make that much of an impression.
