The more Italian sex comedies I watch, the more I realise that this isn't a genre to investigate in detail. This one, like most of the others I have seen is an unfunny romp, with a smattering of nude scenes which don't make up for the general inanity of the comedy. In this one, a young guy experiences erectile problems and so cannot consummate his marriage - his lecherous uncle tries to help out and much sexual shenanigans follow. Like many of these films, the chief selling point is its lead actress, in this case Edwige Fenech, who for me will always be defined by her excellent turns in a series of awesome gialli but it seems like, at the time back in the 70's, she was probably most famous for these sex comedy romps designed to serve the domestic Italian movie market. Once again, Fenech is a welcome presence but she can't save this, as the abundance of banal comedy takes a bit of an effort sitting through. Another legend of the giallo genre, Carol Baker, also appears in this and is improbably cast as Fenech's mother! But essentially, it's the comedy that lets the side down, seeing as it's so prevalent. One example of the humour was a portrait picture which kept changing expressions - this exact same daftness appeared in the last Italian sex comedy I watched, the Winsome Widow - I mean, is this a trope of the genre?!! Anyway, I can't really recommend this - or this genre as a whole - to anyone except the most intrepid fan of Italian popular cinema.
