The opening crawl of this gorgeously constructed film thanks Larry Flynt for the discovery of the beautiful Amber Hunt. And though you wouldn’t know it by the credits, Anthony Spinelli directs this rather sad tale of a young woman who wears Catwoman jumpsuits, turns to prostitution and lives to regret it.

Well, actually, she commits suicide by jumping out a window after a run-in with her pimp boyfriend and the guy she left behind. Whereas the story’s told in flashback at her grave site. Cindy is the more glamorous hooker name Hunt is given by her friends who bring her into the business. But it isn’t before long that Cindy, a hairdresser with a straight headed boyfriend who’s attending medical school thanks to her hooking, embraces her life of excitement. The prospect of all the money- the ultimate aphrodisiac- and the adventure of meeting new guys turns her head. Honestly believing that she’s doing him a favor, Cindy quietly dumps her beau, Dennis, played by Fred James, a guy who reminds you strongly of a Seventies Kurt Lockwood.

Unlike what you might expect with the wham-bam, get-it-over-with-as-quickly-as-you-can hooker philosophy, every scene is delicately seasoned with romance and a caressing, sensuous eye for the erotically mounted body shot. Even Cindy’s anal phase as a hooker. And Hunt has much to offer in the beautiful body department.

Even when Cindy’s confronted by the very evil Ben, her pimp in a Travolta suit, played dastrardly by Mark McGuire, it’s all about beauty and style when they make out. You would almost get the impression that Cindy’s life has become all that and more. She’s got the luxury pad, the sports car and even flies an airplane. All courtesy of Ben, mind you, but as the moral tone sets in, you know it will all end very badly. Basically the way the story’s played out, you’re left with the impression that Cindy’s misfortune is the inevitable lot for all women who pursue this lifestyle.

You may not recognize him at first but John Leslie, billed here as John Leslie Dupre, plays one of Cindy’s well-heeled Johns.
