secret of a call girl be a rather odd italian crime film a instead of focus on the usual area shooting and car chase and fist fight etc and we focus on the hard do to girlfriend of a mobster while anna and play by edwige fenech . the film be and therefore and be something like a cross between a crime drama and a romantic drama and in my opinion and it doesn not quite gel together but that not to say that this isn not a good film . the title imply that this will be a confessional drama and implies that the central character be a prostitute and though that be somewhat misleading . a mentioned and the plot focus on anna while a young girl who work in a café . she go from rag to rich when she catch the eye of guido while an italian mobster who take her out of the café and into the gangster life . she soon realise that all that glitter be not gold when she witness a mob hit and the bos want her silenced . guido then decide to push her into prostitution and but when he be catch by the law while she decide to escape him and make a new life with her son and a doctor . edwige fenech take the lead role and do brilliantly with it . her role here require her to a little more than just take her clothes off and and she rise to the occasion well . it easy to forget that she can act consider her role in many of her film and so secret of a call girl serve a a nice reminder . the film also feature performance from corrado pani and richard conte and john richardson and who all do a good job in support role . giuliano carnimeo take the director chair and do a good of direct fenech for the second time and after the case of the bloody iris . it have to be say that this film be more than a little slow at time and especially compare to other similar genre film owe to the fact that the focus be more on fenech character rather than the mob activity . however and this be not always a bad thing . i can not say that i be a big fan of romance film and but fenech do enough to light up the screen every time she on it and the film never become boring . it all boil down to a powerful end that actually do have an impact . overall and i be not crazy about this film while but it a good entry into fenech resume and it get my recommendation .
