Germany Goes Greek (and Vice Versa)

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

Now here's a genuine surprise, a German sex comedy that turns out to be both funny and hot ! Seeing is indeed believing ! Granted, it was directed by a Greek (Pavlos Parashakis, who made the delirious, dirty giallo AIMILIA, I DIESTRAMMENI) who shot it in and around his native Athens, making for a nice backdrop at the very least, but even so. This flick did the rounds internationally in a soft-core version – stressing farce over fornication – and was usually lumped in with the moralizing SCHOOLGIRL REPORTS due to its title, but a far more pleasing hardcore rendition was always waiting in the wings…

Poor little rich American girl Nancy Chesterfield (played by the very Teutonic Gina Janssen from Jess Franco's SADOMANIA and Werner Hedmann's sexy spy spoof AGENT 69 JENSEN – I SKYTTENS TEGN) is having far too much fun with the local male populace on her art school trip to Greece as far as unseen dear old dad's concerned, who wants her back pronto so he can marry her off to a business associate. To this effect, he has sent hunky private dick (he looks like a Marlboro advert sprung to life) Fred Nichols, played by the Numero Uno Greek stud at the time Giorgios Stratigakis (star of Nikos Milas' ROXANI, I ODEYSSEIA TOU SEX a/k/a EMMANUELLE GOES Greek !), to check up on her and sisters in sin Liz (Helga Wild, one of Jürgen Enz's SCHOOLGIRLS) and Peggy (adorable Siegrun Thiel, an all time fan favorite since Heiko Hagemann's LAURA'S GELÜSTE) who seem to spend most of their time making out on a luxury yacht just off the coast. Obviously, the girls don't want their wings clipped and are willing to do whatever it takes to either fool the detective or make him come around to their way of, er, thinking. Help comes from friendly innkeeper Melina (fiery Maria Domingues from Johnny Wyder's EIN GUTER HAHN WIRD SELTEN FETT), forever fighting off the unwanted attention of man about the house Zorbas, doing her bit to divert attention from the girls' wrongdoings. Things take a decidedly Sauerkraut sex farce turn when Nancy's very zaftig mama (Margarethe Kuske, also in Franz Gottlieb's HURRA ! DIE SCHWEDINNEN SIND DA) shows up at the inn to see for herself what her offspring has been getting up to. A tad predictably (but no adult comedy ever really suffered from being so), Nancy and Nichols fall in love – even though she intends to blackmail him at one stage, leading to further complications – and all's well that ends well.

With Greek characters named "Zorbas" and "Mr Calamaris", you'd expect this to be another typically leaden German "laugh riot", but perhaps as a result of the maker's nationality the seemingly unavoidable stereotypes are good-natured and ultimately kind of endearing. Cinematography is bright and sunny in the best travelogue tradition but this movie really scores with its knockout female cast. The three überblondes may confuse fans but just imagine what fun you're going to have trying to tell them apart. Siegrun Thiel, sporting the cutest overbite this reviewer has ever seen, proves the most sexually adventurous of the lot, regularly engaging in rectal and three-way action. Both she and Helga Wild appeared in Navred Reef's PLAYGIRLS OF MUNICH, one of two attempts (the other being DUTCH TREAT, set in Holland) to package Zebedy Colt and Al Levitsky (a/k/a "Roger Caine") as a dirty movie Martin & Lewis. As the sole brunette, Domingues also can't help but stand out, though her magnificent mammaries had already seen to that. Hardcore action remains mostly concentrated on (but not strictly limited to) the yacht sequences, clearly indicating that these were to be inserted or removed according to the country's legislation they were exporting this to, yet remains plentiful and pleasingly graphic.
