Swinger's Soiree

Sat Sep 4 2010


Perv Presents …Swingers Soiree

“A Man and a Woman and a Woman and a Man and a Man and a Woman etc...” etc. Radley Metzger’s 1974 is a rarity. Score tells the story of a liberated swinging hetero couple’s pursuit of another hetero couple for the purposes of seducing the partner of the same sex. Mixing boy/girl, girl/girl , boy/boy, bondage and group scenes this is a film that should certainly be embraced by queer audiences. The film looks beautiful, with Metzger’s characteristic cinematic flare used to create sexy and psychedelic imagery.
