Cathy, histoire confuse
26 December 2023
In the first scene, Cathy is inexplicably raped by three men.

Then the plot switches to a couple who make love on a hayride before being joined by a raven-haired female friend who arrives by train. After shaboinking with a dildo, the man helps cyclist Cathy to repair her bike and instantly falls for her. He avows to her that he knows from a friend "what she does" (prostitution apparently), then Cathy is abducted by her three pimps from the big city, who force her to make love to a cucumber, then rape her once more. She owns up to her new lover Simon, a local farmer, about how she initially worked for and fell for her pimp Tony, engaging in ever more sordid occupations until full-blown street prostitution ensued. Meanwhile Simon's two girlfriends get it off with a local girl. Pimp Tony is eventually caught by locals and made to watch Simon shag all the local birds. Personally, in Tony's place, I would have preferred to have been roughed up by the locals instead. Simon then has congress with Cathy by a river while there is a blue-sky thunder storm in the background.

Bottom line: The director fails terribly to create any sexy scene despite the many pretty actresses at his disposal. Mainly because of his predilection to dildos, which don't really work in a romantic setting. The sex scenes seem like physical workouts - this is what I imagine would happen when a gay director shoots a straight erotic movie. Then the main actor goes in for the "fallen girl" immediately after having a ménage à trois, which doesn't make any sense. Plus there is a very confused plot and background story. Why do the three pimps not simply drag Cathy back to the big city, rather than repeatedly gang-raping her and letting her go. What does rape have to do in a sexy film in the first place? Not even the title makes sense, as Cathy really isn't in any way a "submissive girl".
