Paulson
starring: Barry Evans · Liz Frazer · Hilary Pritchard · Penny Spencer
· Elizabeth Counsell
This
British sex comedy is essentially comprised of four vignettes as told
to a psychiatrist. The first patient, Marion, has uncontrollable erotic
fantasies during job interviews. The next segment is a more involved
session with Lady Victoria Stockbridge who confesses that she supports
her luxurious lifestyle by wheedling 'inside' stock market information
retrieved through constant visits to a horny banker and his lecherous
butler. Miss Stockbridge then incorporates her tale with an 18th Century
fantasy of instigating a duel between a foppish Lord and his dashing
Lieutenant. The final patient is middle-aged Sandra who fantasizes about
rekindling the romantic flame with her imaginary husband. Eventually,
after his parade of sexually-charged appointments, the psychiatrist
is scolded and then seduced by his nurse.
Actor
Barry Evans originally found success playing Dr Michael Upton in the
British TV series Doctor At Large (1966-69). Believing his wholesome
'Doctor' image had curbed his career, Barry jumped into British sex
comedies with ADVENTURES
OF A TAXI DRIVER (1976). Producer Peter
Harrison managed to convince him that he should capitalize on his doctor
persona by bringing it into the erotic film arena. This movie, made
later the same year, was the result. Barry returned to British television
in 1979 for a decade of Mind Your Language before getting fired
during a drunken brawl on the set. The next seven years found Barry
Evans unemployed, working as a London taxi driver, until he was found
dead from alcohol poisoning in February 1997 at age 53.
