CGiii Comment
If a definition of pornography is...it's all about the money shot.
This has it all...and, it's still porn - with Geishas and horrific music.
In the 70s, it would have shocked - it's still pretty shocking...all that sexual obsession from one so demure...definitely, a wolf in sheepish attire.
Now, it's a curiosity rather than a statement.

The(ir) Blurb...
