A WINTER WARMER!,
This review is from: P.O. Box Tinto Brass [DVD] [2000] (DVD)
There is something warmly nostalgic about this compilation of short films by Tinto Brass. Whilst it is undoubtedly soft-porn, the emphasis is on 'soft' and even a prude would be hard-pressed to find anything distasteful about this film, as there is not a trace of nastiness anywhere in sight.In short, the film is made up of dramatisations of written fantasies, sent to Brass's PO box. The actresses he uses are not well known in the uk but are all gorgeous! Tinto Brass is frequently criticised for his obsession with ladies' bottoms.Well I can think of many more harmful and far less pleasurable obsessions than Brass's and the classic Italian lady's bottom is, in my humble opinion, streets ahead of the competiton! For those unfamiliar with his work, Brass operates in the territory Benny Hill would have occupied, if he had been more laid back and producing material for the big screen, instead of the TV. It is gratifying to note that Brass never takes himself too seriously. Great art this is not but, all in all, I can think of few simple pleasures better than curling up with this film on a cold winter's night. On a technical note: The dubbing is awful. The sound is equally awful, but should be fine if you tweak it through your hi-fi system. Let's be honest, you're hardly searching for daring repartee and rapier-like wit, if you're watching this type of film (the dialogue is of a 'carry on' standard). I would have preferred letter-box format and subtitles, but heaven can wait.

Censored,
By R. Jacobson "Movie guy" - Published on Amazon.com
I bought this because I am a Tinto Brass fan also. "The Key" has to be a classic, there is sex, but there is a good plot also, and it keeps you interested and guessing. But what is disappointing about "PO Box Tinto Brass" is the Korean censorship. Flashes of fog appear where there should be female parts. This is most annoying and interrupts what continuity there is. I was taken in by the line: 'This is the ORIGINAL theatrical release as envisioned by Tinto Brass with the original Italian soundtrack.' I'm pretty sure this is not the way Tinto had envisioned his film would appear.

Caution, unless you speak Italian,
By Water Bearer "Aquarius" - Published on Amazon.com
I bought this because I am a big Tinto Brass fan. What the advertising above does not tell you is that although this an all-region DVD, it's in Italian with only Korean subtitles. So unless you speak Italian or read Korean, you may want to pass on this one.

THE FOGGY KOREAN MOVIE,
By skipper44 - Published on Amazon.com
I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH MY FELLOW REVIEWERS ABOUT THIS MOVIE. THIS WAS A MOST DISSAPOINTING EXPERIENCE. THE FOG WAS NOT ADVERTISED AND YOU CAN SEE WHERE A CUT WAS MADE. I FEEL LIKE A SUCKER FOR BUYING THIS GARBAGE. IT WAS A WASTE OF MONEY. I THINK THAT TINTO BRASS WOULD BE FURIOUS THAT HIS ARTWORK WAS THIS BADLY DISPOILED.
