    This movie is probably the teacher of zalman king, the latter's series of softcore pornographic films are all copied from this film, and the plot scenes are copied without ambiguity. It is said that Fred Ward looks completely my type, but the bald top shape is really a bit overwhelming. The most beautiful Uma is this one. The movie itself is all about making things happen.
