Summary: They are French, they are furry...
Review: Compared to the 1930's compilation, this DVD shows more strucure, in that individual film clips can be selected and there is a progression from mild to 'wild', and a wonderful photo gallery that shows women always are women, with no changes in equipment. In addition, the clips show clearly that current erotica shows no great leaps in technique and variety than what was done long ago by your grandparents, etc. The clips are a bit uneven, but probably the sourced materials are not in pristine condition. In America at that time, erotica ('smokers') were done by professional camera men, as they were the ones who had access to the necessary equipment, using their friends. The clips in this DVD are French, and the actors are ordinary people and many would consider most of them as a bit plump. But, they seem to be having a good time. As an addition to a bit of history, this DVD is good and a bit better than the 1930's DVD. This DVD is for those who wish to relive history and not for those who want crisp color and crystal clear shots. The musical sound track on this DVD could have used a bit more variety and pacing. The music recycles, and sometime the tempo changes during the film clip to another sound track which didn't have to happen.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great look into erotica past!
Review: I watched this with high expectations, I purchased the 1930s erotica before and was pleased. This one was even better! It had a little spanking and whipping scenes, softcore and hardcore. If you like real erotica, and want to see how they made films in the past I suggest getting this, you won't be let down.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Great Sampling of the Era's Erotica
Review: My girlfriend and I just watched this and it was fantastic. It was a perfect combination of nostalgia, erotica and playfulness. The film quality was far better than I expected. The soundtrack was typical silent era fare, which at times I thought could have been replaced with something more appropriate. Even thought the ungroomed look of the era (that means armpits too, kids) is not my thing, there were a few scenes that were very....enjoyable. It includes both soft-core and hard-core scenes. Great for anyone into vintage erotica, vintage films in general, or anyone who wants to watch erotic material with their partner but doesn't want hardcore porn or cheesy cable movies.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A LIGHT SLAP WITH A TINY TICKLE OR TWO......
Review: NOW, don't take this one toooooo seriously; but it is fun and the bodies are quite good - of special note is the still photo gallery ~ devine shots!

HOWEVER, this collection is not as good as the previous 1930 set, but well worth having. A great deal is 'tongue-in'cheek' - make of that what you will. Especially the Santa sequence with that rather odd machine is it?

The nurses have a field day in "Clinic Gone Mad" - great uniforms though and mentioning that - there's quite a deal of B & D here - but in a very genteel sense.

See it with a loved one ..... still delivers a stirr or two and many a giggle!

[Watch out for the final segment - 'the flea' - innocent and quite piquant!]

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Ah, the French
Review: This collection is put together better than the previous one (from the 1930's), with a menu and so on. However, the choice of videos is much more narrow than that one. Does that mean only one type of erotic movies were made in the 40's? The movies shown here have a heavy reliance on lesbianism and very mild B&D (half-hearted spankings mainly), which is ... well, not my taste. I don't want to say boring, but I enjoyed the first collection more than I do this one.
