Bora Bora

People are saying this is soft porn, it's nothing of the kind. It's just a nice movie about tropical islands and human relations on beaches and grass shacks and very well-tanned people. The silly plot about a guy getting his wife back is just a vehicle to get you to be in Bora Bora without having to leave your living room. The acting stinks, the soundtrack is Muzak, but don't you think it's about time to hit the South Pacific? As for being porn, yes they sometimes toss their clothes on the floor, but there is no sex, no genitalia, just kissing. Maybe that was porn in 1968 but not now. Who needs clothing in Bora Bora?

I saw this in Viet Nam in '69....have never seen nor heard of it again. It has a beautiful setting and a tale out of place in 1969, Viet Nam.....Still a haunting movie.

The cinematography is magnificent, as well as the shots of the Gaugain paintings. It is difficult to judge the acting, since I saw the dubbed English version which is available on HULU. The film was released by American International in 1970. It must have been a purchased import. In short the film centers around a man going in search of his wife, who walked out on him. He traces her to Bora Bora, and this is where his problems really begin, with his obsession of winning his wife back, trying all types of ploys to do so. I give this film ** stars for the cinematography. The quality of the print is halfway decent. However this film is not on video or DVD.

(1968) Bora Bora DUBBED ADULT DRAMA

Written and directed by Ugo Liberatore that has Robert (Corrado Pani) just arriving Bora Bora, Tahiti three months later only to find out through a series of other women his wife, Margo (Haydée Politoff) is seeing someone else, a young native named, Manni (Antoine Coco Puputauki). Of course, he becomes jealous, and while he is trying to win her back, he makes out with a series of some other women in efforts to win his wife back. Some of the women he makes out with are Tehina (Rosine Copie), a blonde named Susanne (Doris Kunstmann) and a Chinese lady named Wei. One of the most ridiculous scenes of which has both Robert letting her former lover, Manni competing for his wife, Margo's affection, by making out with her.

Made during the Woodstock era and picked up by American International dubbed from Italian. The set up is reminiscent to a porn movie, without the long love making scenes with the main three or four girls are topless with a few rear end shots. It is non- erotic, with a few glimpses of breasts and rear end shots that does not do anything.

Having been on the video shelves for decades, this is a movie that got rented time and time again for its box cover art. Although not false advertising, the movie has beautiful scenes and sext moments, but for any modern audience post 1990, its nothing taboo. In fact, it's nothing great either. Doris Kunstmann is a wonderful piece of eye candy, but as soon as she shows up, she is gone before we even get a chance to know her. Unlike Doris Kunstmann the rest of the cast is not interesting. The movie takes far too long to make a point or to even bring a plot to the audience that they would even want to care about. A disappointment, Bora Bora is beyond boring and more a less a t & a flicks with very little of it and a storyline that does not hold up.
