Lady Libertine

So this is just Victorian era soft pawn.

Modern feminists must be beside themselves when watching movies like this.

However, some aspects of the movie bear closer inspection. Firstly, the start is quite a strange one as the man is 'strangely attracted' to the young boy and is even more attracted at the prospect of caning her for disobedience. Right there you have vague homosexual feeling coupled with an interest in sadism.

Toward the end, we have more caning scenes, visits to brothels and, on reflection, a very young lead actress.

The sets are good as are the costumes, but this is badly acted softcore stuff.
