With obvious overtones of Hitchcock's classic "Rear Window", Candida Royalle's "Eyes of Desire" shows her skill at presenting eroticism and high technical standards.

Somewhat prescient in its depiction of a woman's desire to be a sub (a la "50 Shades" decades hence), Missy is staying at Sharon Mitchell's home, sort of housesitting, when she becomes obsessed in spying on her neighbors (while they're having sex) via a handy telescope

The submission comes in when neighbor Mickey G. takes control and both seductively and with domination takes Missy under his wing, telling her what to do, and her loving it when she obliges.

Besides Adult Cinema icon Sharon Mitchell, looking great, Missy is supported by the uber-sexy Chloe, while in the sequel shot in tandem with this feature a hot new set of femmes join Missy. It is worth noting that the team of Mickey G. and Missy (married in real life were a major force in Adult Cinema at the time.

In terms of camerawork and skillful storytelling, Royalle does a great job of immersing the viewer in Missy's POV.
