The Movie:

This 1984 XXX film, produced by Cabellero and directed by Paul G. Vatelli, has a cast that a vintage porno fan's dreams are made of and while it is typically short on plot, the sex comes often and is of decent quality. Noteworthy trivia for this film is the fact that this is one of Tina Ross' first roles, if not her very first.

While the title and the provocative picture of Ms. Monet on the cover definitely want you to think that this film is about the then burgeoning phone sex industry, it is in fact about a company that is in the business of selling fantasies – phone related or otherwise. This company basically employs hot women to carry out the fantasies that their male clientele envision, making use of their file system which contains all manner of ideas on how best to carry out said kinks effectively. That's more or less all there is to the story, but it's enough to bring us from one sex scene to the next, which is really what more porno plots are there for anyway. So, without further a do…

Chapter 1 – Bridgette Monet And David Cannon: Cannon wants to break into the home of a nurse and have semi-rough sex with her, so that's where Monet comes in. He enters the house after she's stripped down to her lingerie and he makes her suck his dick. After that he takes everything off of her save for her stockings and then he eats her out. He mounts her and fucks her missionary style before she gets down on all fours so that he can go at her doggy style. He pulls out of her and she sucks him off to a big finish in her mouth.

Chapter 2 – Patricia Manning And Kevin James: At the side of the pool these two strike up a conversation but it isn't until Patricia gets in the bathroom that things heat up. Kevin wanders in to find her laying in a bubble bath pleasuring herself under the water, and after he watches her run her fingers through the fur, he moves in for the kill by dropping his pants and landing his cock in her mouth. He goes down on her for a bit and plays with her tits before they move outside to the lounge chair where she sucks his cock again. From there she climbs up top and rides him reverse cowgirl style so that he can play with her tits while they fuck. She slips around and he fucks her sideways, and then she sucks him off as he comes in her mouth.

Chapter 3 – Alexandria, Nina Alexander And Don Hart: Don, looking dorky in his overalls and baseball cap, is alone at the office when he makes a call. Alexandria shows up and eats Nina's pussy in the back room while she lays on the table, and as she does, Don walks in. The oral between the two girls intensifies, and when Don finally drops his pants they treat him to a double blowjob. Alexandria sits on his face while Nina rides him cowgirl style and the two play with one another's tits, before they go into a sixty-nine together so that Don can fuck Nina from behind. They spread his legs and give him another double blowjob that does the trick and makes him finish.

Chapter 4 – Becky Savage And Kitten Natividad: These two are all decked out in their formal evening gowns, frolicking in the bed together. Kitten takes off her top and we instantly realize why Russ Meyer was so goddamn obsessed with her for a while – her rack is astounding. Kitten spreads her legs and Becky eats her out, but it ends there. This ultra hot scene is simply too short.

Chapter 5 & 6 – Joy Larsen/Tina Ross: Joy comes home from a hard day at work and takes a call from Tina. They talk dirty to each other and each one starts to masturbate while on the phone with the other. Both girls are in lingerie and looking good, and at one point Joy uses the phone on her pussy to get herself off.

Chapter 7 – Marlene Matthews And Tom Byron: These two young lovebirds are hanging out in his bedroom reading a magazine together when the mood strikes. They strip down and he starts to sucking on her titties before they fool around a bit and he ends up sucking her clit. She blows him and then gets on her back with her legs spread so that he can fuck her pussy missionary style, then he rolls her over on to her side for more of the same. He pulls out and jerks it off all over her cute little belly.

Chapter 8 – Tina Ross And Herschel Savage: After playing some pool these two hook up and head back to his place where things heat up. They drink and he gets a phone call, once that's done, she shows off her stocking'd legs and strips for him while he takes off his shirt and pants. She plays with her tits and shows off her body a little bit and then gives him a pretty slick looking blowjob. After she's sucked him he gets her on her back with her legs spread and her fingers in her twat holding it open so that he can lick it for her. Once the oral antics are over with she gets on top of him and rides him cowgirl style, and then the fuck missionary style before he pulls out and she sucks him off, at which point he shoots his goop onto her face.

While the kink/freakshow factor is low in this one (which might be off putting to those looking for truly raunchy action), the narrative and dialogue is funny enough to work and most of the hardcore action is genuinely erotic. The movie is very well paced and the cinematography is definitely better than your average porno movie – throw in a fantastic but too short lesbo scene from Kitten Natividad in her prime and you've got one that's pretty hard to say no to.

The DVD

Video:

The movie is presented fullframe and if one had to guess, it's probably a safe assumption that it was shot this way as the compositions look pretty decent. Unfortunately the image is really soft and lacks almost any fine detail whatsoever. The colors bleed and the picture lacks any real definition. If you're used to the rather lackluster presentations that most older porn films have received on DVD thus far you'll be alright with the image as it's on par with most of those discs but don't go into this one expecting it to look like Neu Wave Hookers or Pirates.

Sound: 

The English language Dolby Digital 2.0 Stereo track might as well be mono as the muffled track doesn't exhibit much channel separation at all, if any. The dialogue is soft and sometimes gets buried in the mix but most of the time, if you turn the volume up a bit, you'll be able to at least understand everything that everyone says. Just like on a few of their other recent DVDs, there are also a few spots where the audio levels hit the red and your speakers will actually vibrate, which is never a good thing.

Extras: 

Aside from a menu and chapter selection, the only extra feature on this release is a still gallery made up of roughly two dozen stills from the feature and a web-link, Cabellero contact information, and an advertisement made up of cover art for other DVDs available.

Final Thoughts:

Let's Talk Sex doesn't look or sound so hot on this DVD but the sex is steamy, the cast is fantastic and the movie just flat out works. Despite the limitations of the disc and the source materials used to master it, this one still earns a definite recommendation for fans of vintage adult material.
