Review by: Gram Ponante

Watching Porn Valley trophy milves and cougars in their natural habitats - houses with floors that amplify the clacking of their heels, filled with art that neither they nor their husbands look at - is the aim of Digital Playground's Mrs. Conduct, perhaps the second in a trilogy that began with the Janine Lindemulder movie Mrs. Behavin' and which, also perhaps, will climax with Jesse Jane in 2011's Mrs. Tery Train.

That I didn't say Mrs. Carriage makes me "classy."

Like all Celeste movies, Mrs. Conduct is a playful series of vignettes, this time featuring time-honored porn tropes of predatrices-turned lusty submissives.

In one scene, Darryl Hanah commands two underwear-clad workers to service her. In two other scenes, a bearded James Deen attends to his girlfriend's mom or to a delivery customer with no tip money. My favorite scene features Kayla Synz in a Mrs. Robinson role, with Synz looking like the 90's era porn star she was born to be, all angles, legs, surprising curves, and anachronistic haircut.

Like a Wicked movie, though, Mrs.Conduct is distractingly lit. Each scene seems like a dream sequence - which I guess it is - but the cumulative effect is that it looks like the white balance was adjusted too high and then forgotten about.

This drugged feeling should not take you out of the movie, however. Its pluses include the casting of Rayveness, Hannah, and Sienna West as well as Synz, each unmistakeably of the trophy wife school of cougars. We imagine the things they get up to when not seducing household staff; they must at least know how to program their DVRs with ease.

To think that Jesse Jane is actually a MILF (though by one definition, that of being a mother with a child old enough to have friends who would entertain impure thoughts about his mom, Jane is not) is fun to consider while watching this movie, filled with women not much older than Jane but who look the part of bored and bejeweled housewives the way she cannot. Great casting.

While the bright and fuzzy lighting might cause headaches, there are plenty of things populating Mrs. Conduct that would provide quick relief if you'd just do what your mother told you and put some elbow grease into it.

Just as I sometimes enjoy dressing up in a space suit and, you know, going to other planets, I think some "fetish" videos are those in name only. Actual BDSM fans would wonder what was up with the coats of arms on the wall and why Synz couldn't get out of a cage that didn't even have a latch on the door. Also, why is Marco Banderas wearing camouflage pants? And why is Synz wearing porn heels?

The strappy gear goes away very quickly, giving way to a standard porn scene. Not that Synz is not lovely to look at, but a "dungeon party" rental does not a fetish video make.

In JM's "Tough Love 12", though ... well, we do have an idea that Synz is not enjoying herself. More about abuse than a lifestyle arrangement, this video (also featuring a very funny scene between Otto Bauer and Dana DeArmond) does a little work in establishing the relationship between long-suffering wife Synz and her redneck husband, played by Jay Ashley.

Embarrassed that she has dragged him to a marriage counselor, Ashley proceeds to debase his helpmeet.

Neither of these videos would meet with the approval of dedicated BDSM enthusiasts: one is playacting and the other is juvenile, but that is not the point; Synz looks good with her clothes off. Wonder what Paige White would do with her?
