Natacha

Valentina Valli in the title role of "Natacha" is a stunning sight to behold, but this Marc Dorcel video suffers from the same syndrome afflicting most of his brand-new releases: heavy narration purports to give the viewer a story line and characters, but the visuals are strictly wall-to-wall sex which don't correspond specifically to the voice-over.

The eight sex vignettes are structured with Natacha walking around presumably Paris (or Prague or Budapest), with two voices confrontational on the soundtrack, as she seductively and nastily taunts the unseen guy (or the viewer perhaps) about messing up his family (wife and children) with sexual trysts. The premise is that such talk or action turns the guy on, and therefore the viewer too.

So we see a series of pointless sex scenes, all in glamorous settings with lovely attire for the ladies. The voice-over is merely confusing, at one point implying incest as the supposed son has a threesome involving a relative. But the actors on screen have no characterizations other than what Natacha voices over about them, so the action is remote.

Several reliable performers give arousing sexual portrayals, notably Monica Sweetheart (the international star of this production and Lea De Mae. After watching so much Dorcel of late, I understand he has gone from story features to join the all-sex approach that audiences appear to prefer, but it's a shame given the many excellent feature films or videos he used to emphasize.
