Can there be a worst film? Even Ed Wood at his horrific worst couldn't come up with something this bad. Cheesy, stupid, long-winded, preposterous...and those are the good points. I saw this trash back in the early 80's when I was incredibly bored to begin with, and actually sat through the entire thing without blowing my brains out, although that probably would have been a more pleasant experience. I actually remembered it because it was so bad. It makes me sad in a way because some of the best directors got their start by making TV movies (ie Spielberg) and it was a wonderful way for them to get their initial material before the public, but crap like this just totally killed the entire process.

I thought this movie was remarkable, not only because it tackled a subject that most filmmakers would shy away from, but because it did so with a lot of tenderness and heart and humor. The sexual tension that slowly builds between the boss and secretary soon gives way to love, as the two lonely, misunderstood and alienated people learn to accept themselves as well as each other. As is usually the case in a spanking relationship, the "sub" is really the one in control of things and is the stronger personality by far. The spankings don't make her feel humiliated but rather give her a feeling of power and confidence, enough to give her the courage to face herself and her feelings for the boss by the time the movie is over.
