Jassie is charming
Bud Lee chose less famous actresses for this Sin City Ultra romance, and it is nice to see them rather than the usual suspects every time. Jassie makes for a sympathetic heroine, with the obscure but impressive part-time porn thesp Summer Haze a fine co-star.
Summer is an erotic photographer, whose work is exhibited in galleries, and Jassie is her young lover and assistant, formerly one of her models. Told from J's point-of-view in voice-over the story represents her blossoming, finding her own way in life. D. Cypher's screenplay emphasizes memories as well as living in the moment, symbolized by the still photograph.
Most of the action concerns Summer's photo sessions, with a bevy of alluring models (including Sondra Hall, Lezley Zen and Kristal Summers), who collectively (with Summer) make up a big-breast parade - a fact emphasized by Lee in the BTS short subject. But Jassie contrasts mightily with this porn actress archetype, she being a slim, flat beauty, sort of a precursor to the look of Allie Haze a decade later.
It's a laidback, quite romantic feature, loaded with explicit sex but directed by Lee for Couples audiences. There's a wistful element here that perhaps could have been made more exciting, but as an antidote to gonzo it works just fine.
