Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

Poor little rich kid (Lattanzi) flunks his graduation French, so his father hires an attractive 29-year-old tutor (Kaye) who initiates him into rather more than the mysteries of la plume de ma tante. Both flap their eyelashes and flash their toothpaste smiles, but are insipid and boring as they go through the motions of nude swimming, clinging wet T-shirts, shared bubble baths and lyrical love scenes. Puerile dross which dares to speak with feeling of the value of sex while making such an obvious play for the soft porn market.
