The Libertine (1968) YIFY - Download Movie TORRENT

This was apparently pretty hot stuff back in 1968, though by the standards of modern films, it's a very tame exploration into the erotic world by a sexually constricted widow. My review is based on the DVD and I read one review that says that the videotape actually is more explicit and has a better print! Technically, it's a well made and acted film, though I am sure it's not a film for everyone's taste since the content is very sexual. While this might be excellent viewing for couples, it's not a film you'd want to show the kiddies!! A young and attractive widow is seen at her husband's funeral. Despite his sudden and unexpected death, the woman finds herself feeling nothing. She knows she SHOULD feel sad, but comes to realize that their three-year marriage was a tad dull. Shortly after this realization, she learns that her husband had another apartment that he never mentioned to her! It turns out this is a place where he had a lot of affairs--with himself and his partners being filmed having sex and involving themselves in sado-masochism!! Instead of feeling outraged, this widow found herself fascinated and through the course of the film she decided to experiment sexually. She has a large number of sexual encounters (some of which MUST have been a lot wilder than the stuff on the DVD because late in the movie, she shows a man film of herself at an orgy--something not mentioned before). All this is pretty meaningless and hollow to the lady--as she doesn't seem all that satisfied by this wild life. And, surprisingly, in the end she discovers a funny way to make her new marriage both wild yet amazingly conventional--blending the best of both her old life and the new.As for me, I liked the film generally, but there was something that I found pretty wacky and a tad disturbing. While a dull sex life is something the film preaches against, the viewer might think that the only things a couple might do to "spice things up" is engage in sado-masochism or "pony rides" (you'd really have to see the film to understand this bizarre fetish). It's a real shame, as there are so many options for spicing up your relationship other than slapping the crap out of your partner!! I truly hope people didn't take this message too seriously! Finally, once again, I should point out that this is NOT a film for the kids! But, considering it isn't really a porn film but actually has an interesting plot and some humor about it, it may be a film for you. It certainly isn't for all tastes.

OK italian sex comedy

I only really watched this for catherine spaak and im glad i did. It was sexy and catherine was so gorgeous but the plotline was a bit to daft for me. A widower finds out her husband was a sex pervert and sets out to engage in multipe acts of outrageous sexual adventures herself. I couldnt shake off the feeling that i was just watching a female Confessions of a Window Cleaner film. And thats not good. I would have given this a 7 despite that but then i watched the ending and it was rubbish. Absoulte tosh. So its a 6/10.PS Do all italian films have such dubbing problems? Its an italian film, everyone is speaking italian, but i swear every character looked like they were dubbed and out of synch. Its weird.
