MOVIE

Bare Country

1971 · 60 min ·

Picture opens with a traveling salesman showing cute redhead Ellie Mae his samples, and we know we're in for a feature length movie not adapted from Shakespeare or George Bernard Shaw but rather drawn from the culture of stag films and dirty jokes. Dalana Bissonnette, aka Kay White, plays Ellie and she's brightened up dozens of cheap porn I've seen without ever achieving a following or recognition. What the salesman is pitching turns out to be a book about sex, appropriately. Film continues with a busy kitchen and living room where girls and cousins hump interchangeably. To a studious schoolgirl he's just humped a boy remarks "You couldn't do that with a book", words for shiftless layabouts and slackers to live by.
