Images - The Tinto Brass Collection |
 | | Although Brass would probably chuckle at the idea that these three films have a strong feminist slant, Brass' female leads are strong, independent, and almost heroic in their quests to become emancipated from their roles as housewives, concubines, or mothers. |
 | | Brass' characters are complicated, occasionally messy, and charged with enough lust to sap even the strongest of relationships, and Brass allows his characters room to explore, make mistakes, and ultimately celebrate the intricacies of their intimacy. |
 | | Although Brass' clever screenplay is always amusing and entertaining, the story itself (Miranda, a tavern owner, beds four men over the course of a year in a search for the perfect husband/lover) is definitely a one-note affair and the performance by Serena Grandi as the titular character is severely hampered by atrocious English dubbing. |
