Levi Richards gives a compelling performance as a ne'er-do-well gambler in LADY LUCK, a long-forgotten XXX picture recently unearthed by Alpha Blue Archives, on a tribute DVD to Eve Orlon.
When he's not at the races playing the ponies, Rick is cheating on his wife Lucy (Eve Orlon), pretending to her that he's got a poker night out with his buddies. Romance hits him when he befriends a lovely, bosomy girl at the racetrack and film actually builds some sympathy for its central characters.
But this is ultimately 1-day wonder porn, innocently presented in that the clichés and hard & fast rules had not yet set in (in 1971, pre-DEEP THROAT, hardcore features were still in their infancy). RIc Lutze pops up as Bill, who is humping Lucy while Rick's away.
Nothing much happens but this one plays like a real film, including actual on-location race track footage. A nice try, but lacking the basics of screen writing 101 regarding story arc, protagonist vs. antagonist and elements to create and sustain one's interest in the narrative.
