I'm very surprised this film hasn't been noticed more. It's quite an entertaining erotic story, with excellent production values and wonderful English locations. It's a curiousity in that it features absolutely no dialogue, with the entire storyline being narrated by "Fanny" herself in a slight Northern English accent.
The writing is often quite amusing, with highly descriptive depictions of what's going on in, both in front of you and in Fanny's mind.
And what's going on in front of you is mostly Cheryl Dempsey removing her clothes to show her perfect and natural body. The standard rags to riches plot provides many opportunities for Fanny to bed her way up the social ladder.
For many of the cast, this film seems to be their only cinematic effort, but I'm surprised Ms Dempsey hasn't been snapped up for something else. Maybe she has no voice. Or perhaps everyone used pseudonyms for this unusual effort.
The sex scenes are pretty tame by much of today's standards, but there is nudity aplenty for those interested in this sort of thing.
