this film is too hot for me to describe in detail here on amazon, it is too much of a classic tinto brass film. but i can give you the skinny. a country girl named mimma (caprioglio) get a job at a brothal to earn money for her man to help him start his own business(the madam gives her the name paprika meaning beautiful ass). along the way she learns there is not just a bright side,but a very dark side to the prostitution business, for which if you are not prepared and armed to protect yourself (ladies) this occupation(if you want to call it as such)may well just destroy you.

buy this film before it is gone forever and you'll know what i'm talking about.
this classic film was made in the late 1980's. a semi-x-rated dramatic erotica
boardering on porno.

it is so good to own an all region dvd player.

NOTICE: the german version of this film with a HOT freeze shot from the film is edited(99 min, 12 min of missing footage) while the uk version is 1hr 52 min.

if you want this uncensored get the uk version(caprioglio dressed sexy standing next to a bar).

This is the kind of film that Fellini would have made (if he really had balls), since it also mocks the society he satirized again and again! In "Paprika" from 1991 and by none other than Tinto Brass, we have a well-conceived (loosely based on "Fanny Hill") and highly-eroticized sex-comedy. The story is already well-known: a young unworldly-woman 'Minna'/'Paprika' (Deborah Caprioglio), looking to make quick money in an economically-ravaged post-war Italy (circa 1958), goes to work in a brothel, under the advice of her pimp-boyfriend. What she finds along the way, interestingly enough; helps her to grow and develop an understanding of the human-psyche and the kind of world we live in. She also finds happiness, by way of her true love 'Franco' (Stephane Bonnet) and some much needed financial independence. A fairy-tale ending, to a story that at its core, is saying a lot about the 'commodity of female-flesh' and people in general! What Tinto Brass does best, he serves up an erotic fantasy of female-sensuousness, without the taint/bias of cheapening the proceedings, with moralizing over what is good or evil. We should already know what is "good and evil", that's the difference between him and the amateurs. And his idea of what he finds erotic about women, will find broad approval and disapproval too. Especially his taste for large posteriors, large bosoms and women that are, as close to their naturalness as possible. In this respect, Deborah Caprioglio was a perfect choice, she resembled a young Sophia Loren. The rest of the female-cast also shared in an abundance of generous female attributes. And the film was very funny too, lampooning and satirizing the society of then and today! Not to be missed, especially for aficionados of 'Tintoretto's' films.Read more ›

One of my favorite Tinto Brass movies, it happens to be for sure one of his most successful ever! Here's now a Blue Ray with a splendid restoration work from the original film's vaults, colorful, lavish, always sexy, and, as erotic as only Brass could make film making: a bit art house, a bit highly stylized images and imaginative situations and angles, ultimately, a mix of those sensational, sophisticated comedies in perfect 1930s style mixing wildly with expected or unexpected turns into an unique, always top of the line elegant, erotic story telling that's always handled with an auteur talent, and, believe it or not, with an ironic yet sophisticated eye capable always to make you turn into a voyeur without feeling one, so expressive and radiant to let you believe the most uncomfortable circumstances along with vivid glares, and rapid smiles, most importantly genuinely completely free of any judgement, but realistically depicting and composing, at the end, quite the piece! And, sometime, as it is for Paprika (but, also and even more so for those i would call its own masterpieces "The Key" or "Salon Kitty" and "Caligula", too) to take an audience with candor almost at the edge of a sublimating experience, without ever letting anyone feel involved in the mud of that famous Euro jaded sex exploitation, or other lower sub genres, when, in fact if many tried to imitate his style at times with rewarding box office success, nobody has really ever succeeded though to deliver a motion picture with the same grace and/or intensity, and that same and admired lyrical cinematic language of one unique league.Read more ›
