Review of Au Pair Girls (1972) by Miles R — 13 Jul 2014
This horrible sex comedy has an unintentionally hilarious first half, as a relentlessly bouncy score pounds into the viewer's head with nagging tastelessness. Imagine a jaunty romp like Tom Jones' "It's Not Unusual" weaving in and out of a film for a half hour -- you either tear your hair out or just start laughing at the absurdity.
"They come from here, they come from there/No matter where they may come from, they're always welcome everywhere...AU PAIR! With swinging hips and swinging hair, they add a dream to the swinging scene every fellow needs to share.
..AU PAIR!" Unfortunately, the film turns much duller once it settles down -- particularly a dreary subplot about the seduction of a rich, pampered innocent. The other three au-pair tales are only a smidge more engaging, but fear not -- in the end, the girls come together to be whisked away for a lifetime as a sheik's mindless sex slaves.
Hooray for happy endings! Streamable on Netflix (as if anyone could be bothered to rent the DVD of something like this).
