Portraits de femmes (1970)

Trivia

Portraits de femmes

Edit
"Donner has always been intrigued by the position of women in Scandinavian [Nordic!] life - although from an ethical, rather than sociological, standpoint." [Contemporary comment of Peter Cowrie in 'Finnish Cinema'; pub. '76.]
This film "belong[s] among the most valuable achievements of Finnish cinema in the decade [it was made, and] is considered the director's riposte / equivalent to his hero's, Ingmar Bergman's 'Now About These Women' - although this in a more "shameless earthy fashion" in which he "sardonically deflates the supercilious image that many Finns have of their own behaviour, as he follows the priapic progress of a porno director from take to take, bed to bed ." [From Peter Cowrie in contemporaneous 'Finnish Cinema; published '76.]
Jerker [sic] A. Eriksson, a friend of director Donner, was the head of film censorship in the decade of this film involving a pornography censorship theme.
The line that the porn director - (played by the film's director, Jörn Donner) - says at the island porn shoot, "Not 69 again", is an arch reference to a prior film of that title, that the director himself previously directed, viz: " Sixtynine" in - 1969.
