I was 15 years old in 1967 and this was the first "X Rated" movie to show in my home town. We had a brand-new twin screen theater and the MPAA's rating system was new and theater operators did not yet know how to deal with the ratings, so I just walked up, purchased a ticket and walked right in (I was 15 and looked like I was about 12 or 13.. they had to know). I originally attended he movie to see the sex. I had never seen anything even remotely containing nudity and was curious. I remember being unimpressed with the nudity and sex, but actually enjoyed the picture. On my way out, I bumped into a Jr. High School History teacher of mine, who attended the same Church as my family. She sheepishly walked up and said, "...tell you what Jim, I won't tell your mother I saw you here if you don't tell her you saw me (and her husband) here". "It's a deal", I said worrying about my own skin and I never told my little secret. I'd like to try to find it on DVD to see how I would look at it nearly 40 years later. I'd give the movie ***** (five) stars out of 10, based on the 40 year-old memory of a 15 year old viewer.
