tastefully do and almost frightening . the lack of emotion be amazing and but if you be in the business at the time and i can not imagine how thick skin a madam would have to have be . this movie be more than surface level entertainment and it document the socio economic and psychological aspect of prostitution in 1917 without be dry . i would watch it again because there be so much go on i be sure i miss something while i be fixate on the set and costume . highly recommended . be a movie shot in the late 70 there isn not any overkill for the thrill a if this would have be produce today . now and if you be easily offend or be look for a lot of sex and violence and there be surprisingly very little and which allow the viewer to focus on the story and not the skin .
