Description:

The original title of this French-produced English language production was Live Virgin, but after costar Mena Suvari rose to fame in American Pie and American Beauty (a kind of before and after snapshot of the American dream), a name change was inevitable. Suvari is the daughter of silver-haired pornographic film producer Robert Loggia. She rebels against her estranged father by signing on to an interactive pay-per-view sex event with kinky cable porn king Bob Hoskins. She agrees to lose her virginity live on TV while thousands of men across the nation, uh, experience the event via a cybernetic suit wired to the deflowering stud. Despite its salacious material, this screeching sex farce earns its R rating for language--there's little nudity but plenty of four letter screaming between the competitors. Not so much plotted as simply let loose, it's a frantic, sloppy mess with characters rushing every which way and clashing loudly while Suvari's boyfriend (Gabriel Mann) frenetically tries to put a stop to the whole sleazy affair. Sally Kellerman costars as a hypocritical tabloid talk show host who rails against the event while feeding its publicity with continuing coverage, and X-rated star Ron Jeremy has a bit part as a cop. --Sean Axmaker
