Sekretärinnen-Report

This is a mindless soft-core film without a lot of sense and no pretension to anything else. Such films have their virtues: natural pretty girls with few clothes, some humor to keep things light, male leads who are such jerks that it makes you feel superior, soft-core with no real hardcore or violence - so things can be sexy without being too serious, and few distractions such as character development, good acting, plot and deeper meaning. It is relaxing and the sort of thing that many guys like when there is nothing else to do or they are between girlfriends. Taken at its face value, and without trying to compare it to Citizen Kane, the film works quite well. I was particularly taken with the scene in the bathtub that was both sexy and humorous. The girls were all fetching, especially the lovely Mae (Felicia Park). If this is what you are looking for, it is a gem. If you want great art, look somewhere else.

This movie begins with "Mr. Win Albertson Sr." (Hugh Thelman) taking his new secretary "Stephanie Morris" (Kathy Williams) for a drink after work. One thing leads to another and they eventually go to her place where they end up sleeping together. From there the movie switches to another similar scene involving two entirely different characters. And so it goes throughout the movie as the entire film consists of one scenario after another essentially dealing with the sex lives of a few people who work in an office with Stephanie being featured most predominantly. Suffice to say, there is no real character development or substantive dialogue to be found in this film as it is primarily focused on sex--to the exclusion of everything else. To be sure, it isn't X-rated--but it does feature plenty of partial nudity along with the aforementioned scenes of a sexual nature. On a positive note, I will admit that there were some fairly attractive women featured in this film with Kathy Williams--and to a lesser extent Sheri Jackson (as "Marie Corbin")--standing out the most in my opinion. Likewise, the film also takes an ironic twist at the end which caught me somewhat by surprise as well. However, lacking any real depth or overall plot I honestly can't rate it any higher than I have. Below average.
