New York congressman Nicholas Stern (well played to the smarmy hilt by Paul Thomas) puts on a good front of being a morally upright person. But in reality Stern is actually a slimy womanizing heel who powerful reporter Elvira Lawrence (a charming and radiant portrayal by the ravishing Annette Haven) tries to expose to the public as such.
Director Henri Pachard keeps the enjoyable story moving along at a zippy pace, maintains a likeable lighthearted tone throughout, and makes nice use of various Big Apple locations. The witty script by Pachard and Joyce Snyder offers spot-on stinging satirical commentary on two-faced hypocrite politicians and political corruption. The sex scenes are quite hot and arousing. The tip-top cast of Golden Age adult cinema pros helps a lot: Kelly Nichols as sweet, but frustrated old flame Marybeth, the terrific Annette Heinz as fawning, but fed-up personal assistant Jodee, Joey Silvera as long-suffering campaign manager Tommy Corona, Robert Kerman as sleazy rich jerk Fritz von Holenwohl, and George Payne as incredulous TV producer Henry. Larry Revene's sunny cinematography provides an attractive bright look. An absolute hoot.

The Writing Elevates This One
Fun political comedy about a man (Paul Thomas) running for office on a clean-up The Deuce platform, who's a total horndog. Annette Haven is the journalist out to show his hypocrisy. What makes this one stand apart is it's well written, none of the humour is corny or slapstick so it plays like a clever satire as opposed to most porn comedies that are over the top with groaners. Add in a great cast and crew and it adds up to being a winner.
