...And Give Us Our Daily Sex

A very strange kind of sex comedy, a very mixed bag. Some of its plot elements are bizarre, some are clever, some exploitative, and some are pretty daft.

On the daft side, we have a horny teenage boy who wants to spy on his female next-story neighbours, and who - wait for it - builds a periscope for this purpose, something he conveniently just learned in school. The neighbours in question are two bisexual (sic!) nurses who are usually in their kinky underwear (or even out of it) whenever our voyeur has a look. It happens every day, doesn't it?

On the clever side, there is a subtle side plot involving his mother. She is getting gifts from her lover including a glamorous fur coat. Trouble is: how to explain this to her unsuspecting husband? Well, she comes up with a pretty good idea, introducing the coat as a lucky find, collected by her son. It doesn't quite work out as she intended though as her son finds another use for the coat. This part of the plot works very well and would have deserved to be in a better film.

The comedy is similarly patchy, some bits make you laugh, others make you want to bang the writer's head on the wall.
