I have full respect for Tinto Brass: he managed to find relatively attractive women, hire them, then shoot nude pictures of them. Unfortunately that was pretty much the plot of this movie.

The plot is thin at best. As far as I could figure, it was about a group of four people: two men and two women, and one of the men took pictures of one of the women. Love triangles and so on...

However the plot was almost indiscernable because I was not even able ot understand most of what was happening in the movie. One half of the movie, the English version, was not in English. It was in German, French, and Italian. And guess what! There was not a single subtitle in the entire film! The English was just as incomprehensible. It was spoken with such a heavy accent and in often mumbled tones that they may as well have been speaking another language.

So, ultimately, this movie is not worth picking up in its current form. Unless Tinto Brass is your favorite person ever, The Key is just plain mediocre and lacking plot and clarity.

Best film by Tinto Brass!
Stephania Sandrelli is fantastic!
Story, cast, direction is outstanding!
Highly recommend.
Keep in mind, this is not a porno.
This is erotica! In good meaning of the word.

This is one of my favourite Tinto Brass films, the guy who made Caligula. Features the beautiful Serena Grandi. DVD is looking very good, and is in English, except a few subtitles when they speak Italian. Interesting interview with Tinto Brass as well. Better than todays erotic films.

I bought the triple box set of three english version tinto brass movies & none of them are worth watching including this one. If you are buying tinto movies stick to the italian versions.

The key is a great movie a classic and a must buy for your collection. Lots of great sexy scenes without bordering onto hardcore.A good story and good acting. Big budget sex movie from director Tinto Brass. I rate it in my top 10

If you watch mainstreem Hollywood you should stay where you are.
Tinto Brass is for people who actually have brains and use it.
The Key is one of his best and is, basically, cult classic. Tinto Brass understand how to show woman, how to understand woman and how to enjoi woman. His other rare talant is to show landscape and air in it.
And when I try Hollywood junk, all I can say is brrrr which is short for barbaric.

Watching this film is like drinking a vintage bottle of wine. Venice is portrayed correctly in its prewar setting, with its brilliantly lit architectures, nostalgic night scenes, and magical grand canals. The women are so much more beautiful in these gorgeous locals!

VIVA Tinto Brass!!!!!!! Mr Brass knows how too film women!!! A little of this and a little of that.sex, erotica,comedy.!!!!!!

real life connection is what make this title so important.
some of his other titles are just training in erotica.
and real life is what we are involved in every day,right?
the other similar movie - Europe,europe - not available on DVD.
