...will think too badly of you. You can fill oil tanks with seawater and sell stock, you can use every sort of calumny in pursuit of political power, you can even charge lots of money for tickets to bad movies. But you cannot, under any circumstances, gain carnal knowledge of young girls. Dave Axelrod (Martin Hewitt) finds this out the hard way--for a few months everything is cool (steamy hot, really), as he and young Ms. Shields make love at every opportunity. But sin never goes unpunished; halfway through the film, our stud almost dies in a house fire...

Claudio's sister, Isabelle, pleads for mercy at the court, only to find herself propositioned by the ruling Angelo, who, hiding behind his reputation, offers Claudio's life in return for her own carnal indulgences...

...Letter (incidentally, a horrendous title for a movie billed on Paris marquees as Cher Inconnu) won't face up to the question at its center. It ends with Gilles decision to marry Yvette; we can only guess what Louise, whose loneliness sparked the plot and whose carnal rebirth has been its main feature, will do.

Said Jackie later: "I always forgot to pull out the slide." As Margaret Bourke-White in the film Gandhi, Bergen (Carnal Knowledge, Starting Over) should have had no such difficulties. In 1965 Director Richard Attenborough, 57, (Young Winston, A Bridge Too Far) told her that if he ever managed to make a film biography of the Indian leader, he wanted her to play the part of the star photojournalism Bourke-White...

...actress, who starred in Cousin Cousine (1975) and The Other Side of Midnight (1977): "I have read every possible book on her." In Chanel Solitaire, Pisier portrays the designer from age 18 to 35, exploring her numerous love affairs with men and, as Pisier puts it, "her friendly but carnal relations with women." The film, she adds, "emphasizes the shadows in her life, and the more shadows there are, the more one is able to slip into the character." Along the way, Pisier, the cast and more than 600 extras also slip into 1,500 costumes, all recreated from Chanel...
