Summary: A Tinto Brass box set containing 'The Key' which is set in Venice in 1940, the story tells of a man who, unable to relate his bizarre sexual fantasies to his wife, writes them in a diary in the hope that she will read its contents and abandon herself to him completely, 'Cheeky' in which Carla, a young woman from Venice, travels to London to find somewhere to live for her and her lover, Matteo. When a estate agent makes sexual overtones to Carla, events spiral out of control and Matteo becomes increasingly jealous... and 'All Ladies Do It' which is the story of Diane and Paul, a happily married couple, but when Diane returns home from Venice covered in bite marks, Paul explodes in jealousy...

This saucy collection features three erotic Tinto Brass films: ALL LADIES DO IT, CHEEKY, and THE KEY. See individual titles for more details.

With its star's bottom looming large on the cover, erotic adventure All Ladies Do Itis clearly the work of Italian director Tinto Brass. It is another tale of a young woman and her quest to fulfil her sexual desires, in this case Claudia Koll's Diane, who embarks on a series of casual affairs much to the interest of husband Paul who, assuming that her tales are merely the product of an active imagination, finds himself aroused by their content. In the meantime, Diane is increasing her circle of lovers before a trip to Venice threatens to bring her dual life crashing down.

The plot is frankly secondary to Brass' appreciation of the female form (absolutely no opportunity is missed to focus on Koll's behind) and it all becomes a little ludicrous. The original Italian title ("Cosi fan tutte") is derived from Mozart's comic opera but, unlike the opera's convoluted sexual politics, here there is only a rather confused attempt at expressing a quasi-feminist message about female independence. All Ladies Do Itis best viewed as a piece of glossy titillation and nothing more.

On the DVD:Brass certainly knows how to make the best of a location and there are some exceptionally beautiful shots of Venice to be found among the carnal adventures. The extras include a filmography and photo gallery as well as a low quality but telling interview with the director, during which he expounds on a rather strange theory regarding women's bottoms and the fact that, unlike their faces, they cannot lie. --Phil Udell
