This picture probably dates from the second half of 1970 and is among the early Los Angeles-based ventures into hardcore territory. The plot could be written on the back of a napkin and still leave plenty of room to wipe shrimp sauce off your lips. Two jamokes decide that the best way to meet women is to pose as injured ski rescue team members, with clip-on casts. It takes about 3 minutes to set up the story; the rest of the film's hour is devoted to nude sex scenes.
The sex scenes are pretty graphic in any case, 1970 style, but also include some hardcore footage. The video version may be a somewhat trimmed-down print, edited for theatrical showing in venues where regular XXX was not tolerated, though enough remains to leave no question about the original content.
One of the guys (a 35+ drifter type with a large personal collection of tats) is teamed with beautiful Kathie Hilton for the opener. Neither takes any further part in the plot (Kathie's work is the strongest I've ever seen by her but not quite hardcore, and it really doesn't look as if she went the "extra mile" for this film). The other, a younger drifter-in-the-making, with less body art, pairs with 30-ish Judy Angel. She throws him out when she finds out about the scam and then has a graphic lesbian scene with the room service girl, before summoning the "phony cripple" back to her room. Meanwhile, a hippie couple who are friends of the scammers share a room, and another couple get turned on while listening through the wall. Crotch shots and hardcore glimpses abound, particularly with Angel and with the hippie couple. Unless Something Weird has snipped a reel from its video release, there is no wrapup to the proceedings.
The cast all appear comfortable and seem to be having a reasonably good time. The dialogue has a basically improvised feel. Angel does the best job with dialogue. She was a little older than average for an actress in this genre, with the manner (but not the voluptuous body) of Jennifer Welles. You'd never guess it from her demeanor here; she seems like someone who has her head on straight.
Picture is primarily of interest to students of the early years of American hardcore films and the process by which softcore filmmakers ventured over to the explicit side of the street. Casual porn fans will probably want to take a pass.
