Product Information

It is a situation playing out in bedrooms all over the world. In research conducted by the Kinsey Institute at Indiana University last year, nearly half of the respondents reported a decline in the frequency of sexual behaviour, including masturbation (although one in five people said they had tried something new in their sex life, such as different positions or sexting). So a specialist troupe were flown in from New York for the scene and they proved well able to match the director's stringent requirements. For some people, though, sex may have increased during this period, she says, as a form of stress relief. “It works for them in that way – and that also goes for masturbation habits. For people who find it more difficult to get in the right headspace when they’re stressed, or find it difficult to switch off – which we might do normally on our commute home, or when we go to the gym after work – there’s no escape. We’re parenting, working, relaxing and working out all in the same space.” Frustrated that her career driven barrister husband shows no interest in her a bored housewife has a fling with a skeezy travelling salesman. A rare starring role for the lovely Luan Peters, a regular face,and body,in British horror and sexploitation films of the early 70's. You have to suspend a certain amount of disbelief that ,firstly ,any man could sit in bed reading a book with sexually frustrated Luan lying next to him gazing up suggestively..and secondly that she'd even contemplate a sleazy daytime dalliance with a canned goods salesman who resembles Sid James of 'Carry On' fames younger brother! It's a surprisingly downbeat, 'realistic' film,following Luan's daily routine of dropping her kid to school and stopping by the grocery…

Not Tonight Darling” features the beautiful Luan Peters in the lead role as a discontented housewife in a sexless marriage. Peters’s character embarks on a sexual journey. She cheats on her husband, ends up in a porn film without her consent, and exercises at a health spa. The band Thunderclap Newman, known for their hit "Something in the Air," makes a brief appearance at a club. Peters's husband seems to have an obsession with fireworks. Viewers will know Peters from her roles in “The Flesh and Blood Show,” and “Man of Violence”—both directed by Peter Walker. She also had small parts in the Hammer films “Lust for a Vampire,” and “Twins of Evil.” This movie didn’t win any Academy Awards, but Peters is convincing here, and it is, ultimately, an enjoyable watch. Karen is a “stay-at-home” housewife who is being watched every night through the bathroom window by a 'Peeping Tom', who is being put up to it by his friend. She eventually finds out and gets her revenge on them. Confirming my theory that the 70s were the decade that taste forgot this movie has the production values of a school play and looks like it was shot in various crew members flats.The film is an illustration of the films that were bought out just to titillate male audiences and for film makers to see exactly what they could show . It doesn’t necessarily have to be something “sexy”; it could be something such as cooking together. “That is a shared experience. Talking and feeling closer to our partners can make us more open to sexual scenarios or responsive desire. It’s nice to remember we can have fun, play together.” We may be together all day, every day, but we should recognise that this is not necessarily “quality time”, Moyle says. Attractive London housewife Karen Williams (the voluptuous Luan Peters) is frustrated and bored with her frigid and pompous work-obsessed solicitor husband, John (Jason Twelvetrees) and falls prey to the voyeuristic fantasies of a sleazy shop assistant. When the opportunities to meet people were taken away, her sex drive increased: “It’s the classic ‘If you can’t have something, you want it even more’ thing.”

e) The, shall we say, 'incredible' dream scene in the grocer's shop. Hard to believe and more than a touch of The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band about it (if you recall Magical Mystery Tour). Whilst the picture does have some spots of dirt,Simply Media still give a good transfer,with the outdoor scenes being clear to hear and the girls being pretty.

What she doesn't realise however is that moustachioed shop-assistant Eddie (Sean Barry-Weske) is a peeping tom, and hovers outside her bathroom window at night in the hope of seeing her apply some moisturiser to her arms. Whenever she does appear his binoculars struggle to maintain focus, much like the audience at this point one imagines. This article needs additional citations for verification.

The most laughable aspect is the actor Vince Ball, an aging Australian actor who must be years older than all the girls who describe him as 'gorgeous ' . I think he must of been a friend of somebody and probably paid them to get next to Ms Peters ! Like all these films it is more interesting to take note of the fashions, scenery, attitudes of the 70's rather than follow the plot . Due to my sad life I will watch anything with a bit of nudity and I felt this was above average for the nudity. The camera-work was unobtrusive...thank the Lord, unlike nowadays when cameras can go up somebody's nose or come out of their ****, for no other reason except... that the camera can! The mood of suburbia and the boredom was well displayed. extra half a point - in fact the whole point - is awarded purely for the surprise of an impromptu thunderclap newman gig in the middle, complete with a very awkward actor having no idea how to "get down" to the moderns) Luan Peters (11 June 1946 – 24 December 2017), also known as Karol Keyes, was an English actress and singer.A married suburbanite (Luan Peters) enters the world of crime after falling for a shady businessman (Vincent Ball). If you are able to work from home and live with a partner, for much of the past year you will have been on top of each other – and not in the fun way. “We’re not used to spending all this time with our partners,” says Moyle. “We see all of the worst bits – the bits that we are irritated by, or that we feel are inconsiderate. We get this negative lens, because there’s no escape from each other.” Never Say Never Again (1983) "Good to see you, Mr Bond. Things have been awfully dull around here. Now you're on this, I hope we're… In 1972, she starred in the unbroadcast television series Go Girl, as a go-go dancer caught up in thriller situations. The pilot episode, possibly the only one made, was released twice on UK video in the early 1980s, first as Give Me a Ring Sometime (the pilot episode title) and later as Passport to Murder. [1] In the 1970s the UK pioneered the genre of the Unsexy Sex Film which, despite being full of attractive women taking their clothes off, would struggle to arouse a priapic teenager (the previous year's Permissive is another example).

Many sex and relationship therapists talk about the importance of “simmering” – gestures of light arousal without the expectation or possibility of sex. Think of embracing your partner as you pass by and inhaling their scent, rather than cuddling – which, says the sex therapist Stephen Snyder, “depletes erotic energy”. Vowels suggests taking the pressure off. “Say: ‘We can just do some kissing, or cuddling, or some touching.’ Obviously, if it goes further, it goes further, but there’s no pressure or expectation to achieve anything; it’s just time together,” she says.
