COUSIN PAULINE is an unusual porn film, but of interest to the hardcore fans of '70s roughies. I would be curious as to its authorship and production circumstances, as it doesn't fit into any of the usual pigeonholes.

Closest correlatives would be the hokey sex comedies made by Roger Caine and Zebedy Colt in Europe in the late '70s: PLAYGIRLS OF MUNICH and DUTCH TREAT. But this is serious stuff compared.

What we have is a mixed international cast (largely unknown) articulating in English with a variety of accents. Pauline is played by quite familiar U.S. porn starlet Any Mathieu - I've seen nearly all her movies listed in IMDb, and frequently she plays a character named Pauline -whether by coincidence or maybe she was known by that name the way Juliet Anderson is known as Aunt Peg (regardless of playing Aunt Peg specifically).

Sound recording on the After Hours Cinema DVD version is not so hot, but the folks are actually speaking English when one would expect dubbing and assume (wrongly) that this was a French production.

Storyline is simple: after some preliminary (and quality) humping, the unknown star playing Jenny welcomes cousin Pauline from America to Paris. We have some attractive sightseeing backdrops, but key set-piece is when Jenny drugs the young girl, has lesbian sex with her and then gives her over to two rather nasty looking guys (possibly British but of indeterminate origin) who manhandle her and rape her, finishing with a d.p. (which at the time was a big deal, most famously introduced to mass audiences by Georgina Spelvin in DEVIL IN MISS JONES).

Disbelief is stretched quite a bit here, as Amy playing Pauline joins in on most of the rough sex, even though she's supposed to be unconscious. But I suspect the fan of violence against women in movies, perv though he may be, is willing to let such niceties slide as long as the action is hot and heavy, so one has to count COUSIN PAULINE a success on those grounds.

For me, always the contrarian, the enjoyment came from seeing Jenny in action -she has beautiful, large natural breasts and is an enthusiastic performer in the sack. Also, she has a quality that is largely lost in modern (video era) porn: she's not beautiful but rather mean looking as befits the villainous role here, and that is far more erotic in context than watching a would-be Barbie Doll have sex for fun and profit on screen.
