the girls don't quite move and writhe in the 'normal' way

Oddo indeed! But I liked this, rambling b/w 'sex' movie from Nick Millard. Ostensibly revolving around a disillusioned Vietnam vet returning to San Francisco and including stock shots of the war in negative exposure. This is in reality a series of encounters with or sometimes just close by scantily clad ladies who play with their underwear and themselves. The thing is the girls don't quite move and writhe in the 'normal' way and Millard seems as interested in bits of underwear or bits of bodies and certainly feet and shoes as he is in the traditional sex fare. This all means that set to a jazz score we are treated to a most unusual and oddly erotic series of images. The misogynist, cod philosophical narration is irritating but so appealing are the strangely shot bits and bobs, I for one did not care. The much hyped violence is mostly off screen and seemingly irrelevant. Mr Millard may have had something to say about a 'mad man' but as usual with the more off beat film makers, it is not so much their serious and supposed intellectual thoughts that interest but their inner passions, possibly, unwittingly revealed.

The drama genre is a broad category that features stories portraying human experiences, emotions, conflicts, and relationships in a realistic and emotionally impactful way. Dramas delve into the complexities of human life, often exploring themes of love, loss, morality, societal issues, personal growth, with the aim to evoke an emotional response from the audience by presenting relatable and thought-provoking stories.

The thriller genre features suspense, tension, and excitement. These stories are known for keeping audiences on the edge of their seats and delivering intense emotional experiences by revolving around high-stakes situations, dangerous conflicts, and the constant anticipation of unexpected events.

Severely traumatized and disillusioned soldier Alan Jaffeo returns to his hometown in San Francisco following a two year tour of duty in Vietnam. Filled with rage and appalled by the general decadence all around him, Alan violently lashes out at prostitutes, family members, and anyone else unfortunate enough to cross his angry and deadly path.
