The producers who brought you 1977’s biggest moneymaker in the porn business, Inside Jennifer Welles, have released this film. Gloria Leonard describes herself as “a nice Jewish girl from the Bronx who is 38″ and who also is the publisher of one of the sleazier monthly slicks- High Society. Gloria has an elegant, seething quality; in this, her most recent film, she becomes a one-woman sexual encyclopedia, encompassing every sexual activity imaginable (and a couple that have probably never been thought of before).Gloria’s background includes studying ballet for 11 years at the Metropolitan Opera before entering the world of porn films in 1975. She is a bright, witty, intelligent woman who just happens to be a sexual dynamo. In All About Gloria Leonard, ostensibly a biography, we see her cleaning out her editorial office before going on to something bigger and better. Anyway, as she packs, she comes across various mementos and artifacts that remind her of past adventures.
One deals with a guy named Horse (Peter Andrews), who works for a publishing house. When this lad unzips. You realize he’s not called Horse because he’s a jockey. Another excellent scene includes an unusual combo: a beautiful black girl (Gloria Todd); a tasty hunk of Oriental cuisine (Ming Toy); and creamy-white Gloria Leonard. This is one of the few bisexual scenes in movie history to meld these three ethnic groups.
The scene destined to become an instant classic, however, is the one in which Gloria conducts an interview with porn stars Jamie Gillis and Marc Stevens, and turns it into the old sandwich trick by getting action simultaneously in the ass and front. It’s very effective footage. Still another scene is shot in a nightclub. The nightclub owner, who looks like a runaway from Tod Browning’s movie Freak, is listed in the credits as Arthur Howard. This is a highly commendable, fast-paced film.
