Both volumes not only have great production values, but could serve as a primer on the essentials of B&D. The pleasure/pain principle, the ins and outs of master/slave relations, proper rope ties and the use of safe words are all covered here — and presented in a highly erotic atmosphere. Part 1covers the basics, and as such stays within the boundaries of the novice. Bill Majors and Gretta Carlson work extremely well together, and one comes away convinced that they truly lust after each other in a B&D sort of way Majors pushes the envelope to its extreme in Part 2, by including not one, but three auto-erotic asphyxia scenes. Before y'all start screaming, let me make it abundantly clear that these scenes are presented in the most responsible manner one could imagine, with a "time out" session called for Mr. Majors AND Ms. Carlson to go over the do's and don't's of said activity. Translated: they emphatically advise that viewers NOT attempt this potentially dangerous activity, and a screen crawl advising the same can be seen (and read) clearly throughout each of the scenes. There is even a "de-briefing" of sorts after these scenes, whereby Bill Majors and Gretta Carlson reiterate their warnings, and let us know that, yes, she could have stopped the action at any time by using her previously established "safe word". Both volumes are destined to become classics, so stock up now.
