I have to begin this DVD review by asking why it is called La Corsetry La Femme? Yes there are corsets, but all in the style of the 1940s and 50s. There’s nothing wrong with that, in fact I love that era of pinup girls, it’s just that the overwhelming feeling I get from this DVD is pinup girl, almost burlesque. Not corsetry.

The production on this DVD is by Playboy TV UK. From the “Uncut” subtitle I’m assuming an 18 version for British TV was produced and this is the uncensored edition. Surprisingly the DVD does not suffer from its association with softcore porn as is often the case. This is a full –on hardcore DVD with a twist.

The twist is that the scenes have atmosphere. These are not cinematic masterpieces, but the filming, lighting, direction, sets and costumes do create a richness that is normally lacking in porn. Fans of the 1940s and 50s will love the retro feel and the almost total avoidance of 21^st century porn clichés. Yes things do get a little laddish in one scene (which I’ll come to later) but for the most part this is a DVD that stands out as trying, and succeeding to be different.

The DVD contains a mixture of scenarios, all with the mid 20^th century feel.

Scene one is girl-girl, with a little vibrator fun thrown in. From fully clothes to cavorting on the bed pretty much naked with a golden sex toy the scene draws you in. It is not alone in suffering from the problem of how to show a female orgasm effectively on camera it’s enjoyable and different.

Boy-girl in the next scene, beginning with a blow-job, cunnilingus then a partially clothed fuck including a slightly awkward anal encounter follows. The finish with a spectacular but staged  facial cum shot is too predictable and the least appealing part of the scene.

Dirty talk on the phone followed by the arrival of a willing and eager brunette starts off this steamy girl-girl scene for a lucky blonde. Masturbation, licking and fingering follow. No toys and a little lacking in terms of a climax but intimate and arousing nonetheless.

In scene four Daria cavorts for her lover on the bed slowly undressing. She masturbates for him then attends to his now stiff cock before he reciprocates, licking her and sliding his fingers into her … you get the idea. Don’t worry they get down to some fucking accompanied by Daria’s signature groans before her face is covered in cum.

Scene five has all the elements for a really dirty four-way with to guys and two girls. The boys are suited, the girls in nurses uniforms and yet despite it’s extremely horny beginnings with the girls getting dirty on the bed while the boys play cards it does lose its way by the time the cocks come out to play and ends up almost at as standard production line porn. This scene is in a different league than most porn but could have been so much better, good but no cigar. This the longest scene on the DVD and I found myself wishing that the two girls had been left to get on with it while the boys jerked off.

This DVD is not to everyone’s tastes. If you like constant hardcore fucking in a contemporary setting you may find this DVD a little too different. That shouldn’t stop you watching it though. A constant stream of conveyor belt porn is not something to be recommended. Fans of retro porn and adult movies with a little atmosphere will love this title. Yes the DVD isn’t perfect but it is far superior to the majority of thoughtless carbon-copy porn on the shelves.
