Review of Le journal intime d'une nymphomane

I was expecting quite a bit from this film because of its theme and year of production, not to mention its director and the blossoming female cast. However, I was quite disappointed. All in all, it's just a tiresome cavalcade of "hip" parties with extremely poor male dancing involved (I did like the dresses though!) added up with sequential lesbian erotica and curious goings-on. Quite a drag-on really, especially compared to such mate-in-period classics as Vampyros Lesbos or She Killed in Ecstasy or a bit later classics such as Linda. I think what was missing was Franco's usual all-delirious directing. In fact, Sinner is much closer to the early 60s Franco than the early 70s. Not a bad film, quite sexy, but missing some essential qualities. I prefer even shit like Mansion of the Living Dead. The Mondo Macabro dvd is very good quality, and yes, even if you're not a Franco completist, you might give this film a go. It might just be me. I am sure there are many people who will appreciate it. For me, it was just too "high street".
