Ligeia

Like the above review mentions, if you expect to see quite a bit of nudity and sex in this little budget number, you will be disappointed. This is unfortunate because there are some really fine, and beautiful, actresses in this, but for the most part they are kept under wraps. Ms. Knox, for example, is ravishingly beautiful with a sultry voice that could melt a man's heart. The problem is one of direction. Ms. Knox and the other beauties could have, should have, been shot with more careful consideration. Both their talents and their beauty are not covered fully in either shot selection or screen time. This is regardless of the initial point that there isn't much sex in the film at all. Erotic film can do so much more without giving too much away. So the lack of (or prohibition against) full blown sex cannot be viewed as a limitation. With proper camera work and thoughtful editing, the director could have truly captured Ms Knox's talent and charms. Instead we get far to short glimpses of what might have been. The world is full of small hurts.
