The Voyeur (Special Edition)

I never saw an erotic movie like, "The Voyeur" that was surprisingly done in good taste. Your eyes never get tired of looking at Katarina Vasilissa's (Silvia) and Christina Garavaglia's (Fausta) beauty throughout the entire film. Visually, both of these ladies definitely carried the movie. Polish Playboy model, Katarina Vasilissa could possibly be the most stunning beauty to ever grace the erotic movie screen. This is the first Tinto Brass movie that I ever watched. In all probability, The Voyeur may also be one of the best classic erotic films ever made. This movie was definitely made to be watched and enjoyed. It was based on the novel, "The Voyeur", by Alberto Moravia" with a lot of Tinto Brass flavor added to it. The movie basically follows the same storyline as the original novel, but it truly changes and over exaggerates to make things more visually and sexually exciting. For example: In the movie, Silvia is portrayed as a lustful exhibitionist, who seems to be living it up all hours of the day and night. Another movie scene shows Dodo day-dreaming of his wife engaged in sexual intercourse with everyone on the beach. "SPOILER ALERT" ACTUAL STORYLINE (movie version) The movie is about Eduardo (Francesco Casale), a college professor who goes by the nick name of Dodo. He and his wife, Silvia lived under the same roof with Dodo's father. Inherently, Dodo and his wife are newlyweds and he has no idea why his wife left him. He starts living life passively, while spending his time reminiscing about Silvia and thoroughly soul searching his life for answers necessary to get his wife back. He was unaware that Silvia left the flat to get away from the "other man" to end an affair that Dodo was totally oblivious to. She was also soul searching, because she loved her husband and felt guilty; she knew she had to end it. She finally tells her husband why she left, but didn't tell him who the "other man" was, because she was too ashamed. She tries to stay away from the other man, but she can't shake the sexual attraction for the way the other man takes her from behind. Though the affair originally started when Silvia was raped on her wedding day, it continued because she found this first experience from behind to be irresistible. Dodo eventually tells her that he doesn't want to see her anymore. Silvia stops him and tells him that she only loves him and that she needs him to help her get over the affair. Dodo delivers a funny line and asks, "What am I supposed to do? Hold on the other man's clothes, while both of you are humping?" As a result, she immediately tries to end the affair, but again is caught-up giving into the other man for the last time - the same night Fausta (the nurse) couldn't go to sleep due to the sexual noises coming from the next room. The thinly-clad nurse, Fausta, hints and actually tells Dodo that his wife is cheating with his father. He knows Fausta is telling the truth. Even though the affair is over and done with, the ending of this movie comes across as ambiguous and unexpected, by using Silvia's dialog as a humorous way to end the movie; She tells Dodo, "The other man is gone and now we can live in the same flat: me, you, and your father!". It leaves the audience hanging and wondering, "Is this affair really over? Nevertheless, the movie's satire and humorous ending hooks the perplexity of the audience. Towards the end of the movie, Dodo thrusts his hips into Silvia, as she tells him how the affair began. He finally realizes that his sexual intimacy can no longer be limited to being a "one trick pony". Silvia still maintains a serene face while making love to Dodo, knowing how it attracts and fascinates him. The movie doesn't address this, but the novel by Alberto Moravia explains why. AFTER READING "THE VOYEUR", BY ALBERTO MORAVIA After reading the "The Voyeur", by Alberto Moravia. You realize when Silvia left, she became the empowered heroine and the true catalyst of the story. She left the apartment to get away from Dodo's father to end the affair and get over the "crush" that she had on his "pig mantra quickie from behind". In spite of the fact that she enjoyed the sexual tryst, she felt ashamed and guilty every time she was unfaithful. So she had to do something about it and left the flat to finally end the affair before she returned back to Dodo. She also left to get Dodo's attention. She never had any intentions to ever leave him, but she wanted Dodo to know (or guess) about the affair. Silvia tells Dodo, " I tried to make you see, but it was as if you were blind. and then maybe I was ashamed of admitting it." Thank goodness this is only a tragic tale, because in reality, if a man found out that his father raped his wife on their wedding day. He would probably castrate the old perverted father and throw him (many times) out of a sixth floor window. I highly recommend this Movie based on its leading ladies' beauty!

I received more than I expected. You see, American porn is the most boring thing in the world. In addition, I will state that American film makers seldom have produced decent erotica, perhaps because our society has been subjected to moral censorship for so long. Not so in Europe. Tinto Brass has created a wonderful movie, witty, seductive and, oh, those fabulously voluptuous women. Nothing comparable to the emaciated, uber skinny and anorexic looking American females. Tinto's women are a gift of the gods. Some pious persons may decide that "The Voyeur" is a pornographic movie. Not so. It's an erotic movie, because it's art. Pornography, at its best, is a remedy for insomnia. Erotism is an art, and an extremely difficult one to create. Be aware that this review is for the 100 minute special edition version. The cinematography is exquisite and acting is superb.

This film is a fraudulent version of the original. I was greatly disappointed when I watched this film. The original is very good but this version was dubbed in English and was edited in the typical American fashion treating all nudity as porn. I was disappointed to find all the male nudity was edited out. The original is very gratuitous with male and female nudity but it was obvious the film was edited for a straight male audience since every scene that showed Dodo or his father naked was deleted whereas the female parts were mostly kept whole. The reason I like foreign films is for their honest and open portrayal of stories (and unabashed nudity) but in this anglicized version, scene transgression is choppy since so much has been removed. I knew this was a film for a straight male audience but the version they are selling is not the film Tinto Brass made but some prudish version. This should have been made clear as I feel ripped-off and deceived into thinking I was getting an honest version of the film.

I found the Voyeur very entertaining. It was typical Tinto Brass. Great lighting, beautiful women,and enough of a story to unite the images. While it is not my favorite Brass film (Cheeky has that honor)The Voyeur makes a nice addition to my Brass collection.

This is a beautiful movie in every way. The filming, the lighting, the gorgeous pastel colors, the not-too-soft soft-focus, and of course the stunning women make this DVD a joy. Thank you Tinto Brass. Time to try other movies by him. The man has a jaw-droppingly healthy attitude toward sex, nudity, bodies, women, love, humor, and movie making. Moreover, "Voyeur" throws a vastly different slant on feminism from the one we are fed daily. If this movie doesn't show the empowerment of women -- in ways that men cannot but like, even though they (we) find hard to handle -- then what does? It may be fantasy, but Brass' approach brings men joy in showing women fulfilled and happy -- IN BEING WOMEN!! An Oscar for Tinto.....even though I think he has already enjoyed his share of earth's blessings!!

I like to keep my reviews short, there are plenty of guys/gals, doing the full bit. I found this movie really enjoyable. It had a story, a bit shallow, but who buys these movies for great story lines. The maid was very sexy with great tits, Dodo's wife, very very very sexy, horny, and I loved the scene where she masterbated in the chinese restaurant for Dodo and the Chinese guy. I was just disappointed at the lack of the voyeur angle, I expected more keyhole peeping or something, I didn't think there was all that much voyeurism in it, that said.it REALLY pleased my girlfriend. Thats another story.......

Huge Tinto Brass fan. This film is comparable with Cheeky and Kick the Cock to give you an idea. Much better than Paprika. The actresses are smoking hot and not bashful. Even a hot mixed ethnic chick! The story line isn't bad either.

It is a very seductive movie and I loved it! A movie from the 70's. All the women have pubic hair. The scenes are not grossly sexual but just so sexy. The girls are all beautiful. You'll especially love the sceen where the lead man is walking on the beach and all the people are having some kind of sexual activity!

tout était bien
