La storia di Lady Chatterley

Filmed in Italy, this film could be described as the original story but filmed as a flashback and also taking a lot of liberties. This version is very sexed up with female nudity aplenty, but despite this, the film is a proper stinker. There is no English translation on the Italian DVD so this review is a bit of guesswork.

Lord Chatterley has passed away and his widow is now in the process of tidying up the affairs of the estate. During this time, she remembers her scandalous affair with the gamekeeper. This erotic version suffers from poorly filmed sex scenes: the women shed their clothes readily enough but the men keep their Tweed jackets and trousers firmly buttoned up. Not that I'm complaining, being a red-blooded male, but this seems to be par for the course in these Italian films, but apart from that, fair's fair; and the so-called love-making scenes are rubbish.

To sum it all up then, if you like looking at naked women, then this could be for you, but if you prefer some cinematic quality, then you shall have to look elsewhere. Did I mention this film is a stinker?
