42nd Street Pete’s Busty Babe Bonanza

Vintage Erotica

Secret Key Motion Pictures

R1 DVD

For this release Pete goes back to the “loops”, three to five minute sexy 8mm film clips that were looped continuously in a cinema, sold to the home market or more likely showed on a nickel-in-the-slot peepshow. His selection includes many of the last of the loops before 8mm gave way to 16mm, then to 35mm feature films that could be shown in cinemas.

By this time the cameramen were no longer shy of showing “pussy shots” but the loops were still a long way from the porn of later years. They were simply titillating rather than pornographic. Still, we see examples of girl-on-girl, bondage and so on, and a rather puzzling loop of a girl and goats. There is also a loop on the ever-popular theme of nudist camps.

Pete’s selection includes the legendary Uschi Digard, a very well-endowed young lady, in four of the loops. We also get a clip from Candy Samples who starred in many early porn films and Arline Hunter who was a worthy competitor in the size stakes.

We also get a loop that Pete asserts may have been a young Marilyn Monroe. He is uncertain, but the girl certainly resembles Marilyn.

Don’t expect a plot in these loops. You will be disappointed if you are looking for character development or any of the conventional film elements. The girls were employed to roll around on the bed or just stand there and sort of wobble.

As usual the quality is poor, the result of too many trips through the projector. There is no sound, as was standard for these loops. The loops may look quaint now but they have a place in the history of erotica and freedom of choice.
