Felicia (1975)


AKA Les mille et une perversions de Felicia (French), 1001 Perversions of Felicia" - Europe (English title)

Felicia is the story of a young and beautiful photographer with a twisted, ugly mind. Calling herself Alison, to hide her real identity, Felicia lures young models to her fashionable New York apartment. Her latest conquest is Jo, a lonely, innocent girl from the mid-west.

The first contact Jo had with Felicia seems innocent enough. Felicia takes pictures of Jo, but as the modeling session continues Felicia slowly seduces Jo.



Later, Felicia asks Jo to live with her. When Jo consents, the bizarre sexual quirks of Felicia at first arouse her and finally terrorize her. Soon after Jo comes to live with her, Felicia brings Jo a strange present. With the dog collar, Felicia completes Jo's domination. She leads her into a strange party attended only by two weird friends. Through the pot and liquor, Jo is dragged, beaten, and tormented. Finally one of the men leads her into the bedroom and Jo finds that she is really capable of responding to a man.

Felicia, enraged by Jo's discovery punishes her. Felicia seduces the young man, Peter, making J0 watch and finally participate. Tortured and terrorized beyond reason, Jo finally breaks and in a fit of rage, cuts Felicia's throat.

Jo tries to escape in Felicia's car but when she picks up a female hitchhiker, her problems begin again. At the point of a knife, the hitchhiker attacks Jo and steals the car and her clothes. Jo is left stumbling weakly in the snow, all hope and sanity gone.

Sensations (1975)

THE SENSATION OF THE CANNES FILM FESTIVAL 1975

Watch 'Sensations' In Our Theater

Sensations is the signal for a new era in motion pictures containing explicit sex; it is the Rolls-Royce of pornographic movies.

Made for a budget of $250,000 by Alberto Ferro (Lasse Braun), it combines the qualities of eroticism, that are the point of this kind of film, with substantial production values normally absent in the genre.

The people in Sensations are special, attractive, well dressed, and interesting looking. There is no air of desperation. Unlike most American films of this type, there is no sense of 'sin' or misbehavior. Agree with the morality portrayed or not, one must admit that everyone seems to be having a good time and that, singularly, Sensations does not seem to be saying that the joys of the flesh go hand in hand with some kind of guilt or punishment.

The quality of the production means that Sensations has a sense of size; the beauty of Amsterdam is part of the basic texture of the film.

Writer-producer-director Alberto Ferro is better known under his corporate name, Lasse Braun, as the maker and distributor of the most imaginative and successful 8mm home films available. His only previous feature was "French Blue" which also starred Brigitte Maier, the star of Sensations.
