Immoral Tales DVD Erotic Collection of Short and 50 similar items

Four erotic tales from in various historical eras. The first, 'The Tide', is set in the present day, and concerns a student and his young female cousin stranded on the beach by the tide, secluded from prying eyes. 'Therese Philosophe' is set in the nineteenth century, and concerns a girl being locked in her bedroom, where she contemplates the erotic potential of the objects contained within it. 'Erzsebet Bathory' is a portrait of the sixteenth-century countess who allegedly bathed in the blood of virgins, while 'Lucrezia Borgia' concerns an fifteenth-century orgy involving Lucrezia, her brother, and her father the Pope. Although it has much in common with Walerian Borowczyk's earlier work, Immoral Tales marks the point where it was sexually explicit enough to have caused problems with the censors on its original UK release. It tells four stories revolving around particular taboos, each delving further back in time, as if to suggest that the same issues recur constantly throughout human history and in all walks of life, whether it s Lucrezia Borgia (Florence Bellamy) or Erzsébet Báthory (Paloma Picasso in her only screen role).
