Lilly Bell shines in the
first scene here, “Stars in
Her Eyes,” in a romantic
montage with Parker
Ambrose leading to a
fireworks display in the sky
before they make some
fireworks of their own in
the bed of a pickup truck
as the camera wobbles
around them. Mia Molotov
also makes an impression
as a reclusive artist making
a painting with Dan Damage
on a canvas spread across
her studio floor. Director
W.C. Walker isn’t afraid to
get in close with the camera
and build scenes at an
unhurried pace.

Longtime Euro-performer
Clara Mia steps behind the
camera for the first time,
writing and directing this
bittersweet tale about bored
Marseilles housewife Mariska,
her philandering husband,
her female housekeeper
(Anita Rover) and the sexy
young handyman boffing
the housekeeper while
daydreaming about Mariska.
Mia relies on voice-over
narration (and occasional
untranslated interstitials) to
drive the narrative, but she has
a good eye for a twisty plot
presented with unexpected
visual angles and creative
camera placement in the solid
sex scenes.

Imagine being given a
one-time do-over. That
is what Dharma Jones is
blessed with—a chance to
see, and live, two separate
paths in life. This equates
to four sex scenes and
two plots; in one scenario,
Dharma stays with a loser
boyfriend, and in the other,
she catches him cheating
and takes a different route.
Not quite as complicated
as, say, the first 12 years
of the Marvel Universe, this
does keep one’s attention,
with Jones doing a fine job
connecting everything.

Ruby Reign relates the
story of picking up Alberto
Blanco over a romantic
weekend and bringing
him back to the room for a
highly oral fling. An innocent
chance beach meeting
results in both families
demanding that party girl
Vanessa Alessia and bad
boy Alex Charger never
see one another again—
so naturally they rebel.
Blake Blossom teases and
rejects every hot guy who
approaches her on the
beach, but she decides
to make the most of her
business meeting with the
boss’ son Matthew Meier.
