Robert Bullock plays the well-meaning office flunky who just happens to possess a spectacular penthouse apartment that he loans out to his friends, aka his bosses, for their afternoon matinees. Based none-too-loosely on the classic Billy Wilder picture, The Apartment, this sexvid shows excellent handling of dialogue by Spinelli’s son, Michael Ellis. The production is high caliber, even if at times it gets a bit talky.

The video opens right off the bat with a heated woman-pleasing scene between French floozy newcomer, Fefe, and well-known ladies’ man, Mike Horner. The foreplay is elongated, so much so that you may start to wonder if he’s ever going to put it in. Fefe is an animated performer who sometimes behaves more like a French poodle in heat rather than a very aroused girl. Her expressions of pleasure are quite frantic.

What might have been treated as a cute subject sometimes falls to heavily into introspection and analyzation,but it’s Spinelli’s trademark successful style.

But even so, this doesn’t detract from the overall erotic heat of the picture. The camera work is clever at times, and all in all this is a nice little video. Nice packaging and the Spinelli name should make it successful on the retail level.
