Having long frowned upon poorly English-dubbed imports, it was a breath of fresh to finally see Gourmet Video (GVC) release "The French Butler" in its native tongue. Including subtitles no less! As opposed to phony oohs & ahhs from voice-over actors (I use that term loosely) who are not "in the moment." Ultimately taking away from the eroticism and overall flow to a film. Unfortunately, most American distributors of European classics opt for dubbing. Starring the ubiquitous Gabriel Pontello, the sexual situations were average for a Euro classic. It may have fared better had it been shot on 35mm film, which always lends an air of sophistication. Overall, a rare chance to see native-speaking French performers in a Classic Erotic film.
