        frigidity ain't erotic

        Despite the presence of Sandra Julien (of "Frisson des vampires" fame), this is a tepid exercise in picturesque eroticism. It made sense to base a film on nymphomania (see Pecas's superior "I am a Nymphomaniac, also with SJ"), but what can you do with frigidity? The most interesting scenes are the campy theatrical pieces, a la Jesus Franco, which are premised by the fact that one of the heroine's boyfriends is a stage director. And the film's attitude toward rape is howlingly politically incorrect nowadays (the girl subconsciously wanted it, according to her psychiatrist.)
