Make no mistake, this is not a Hollywood film. It's a biopic produced by the fetish community. It stars Paige Richards, who is a fetish model, who has built her career on a superficial resemblance to Betty Page (and there have been many Betty imitators). Richards is typical for a fetish model; she isn't horrible, but she isn't likely to do mainstream films either. She can handle the regular scenes well enough to keep the film moving along, but is at her best when the ropes come out. And they do. The story featured is more legend than truth and it isn't going to win any awards. Heck, I've seen more creative real fetish films. However, it's a decent "fan film." If you look at it in that light, it has its moments.
