Pornochic: Bella & Ginebra

This Dorcel series originally capitalized on the title's trend dating back to the mid-1970s theatrical era of porn, when movies aimed at Romantic Couples as an audience briefly brought Adult Cinema into the mainstream, with XXX features booked at shopping malls and written about as an extension of "real movies" (the time of Damiano and Metzger).

This edition focuses on an obscure, but likely stars of the future, pair of beauties, especially the talented Bella Tina, who dominates the screen, and is paired with her real-life partner, billed simply as "John". The vignettes do not connect with each other, as "Pornochic" wilfully resists such niceties as story lines or characterizations, but they are showy, particularly an opening segment featuring Bella in a bathtub threesome.

All the familiar Dorcel touches are present: ultra-sexy lingerie in which garter belts remain in style, condoms, Joss Lescaf for interracial sex, and a de rigeur d.p. Though lacking the expected superstars in the cast (no Anissa Kate or Anna Polina) it demonstrates the long-running series is still alive and kicking.
