Story of Joanna DVD Movie Blog
Story of Joanna DVD Description: "Director Gerard Damiano's take-off on the French classic 'The Story of O' ranks among the best hardcore features of the 70s. Terri Hall stars as Joanna, a sexually naive beauty whose life takes a sensual turn when she meets debauched European aristocrat Jamie Gillis. Gillis brings her back to his gothic castle, where he puts her through a series of sexually-charged trials in order to prove her love. Terri Hall is perfect in the role, with a wide-eyed and expressive face that registers the proper amount of shock and sizzle as she's led into Gillis' misogynistic and depraved world. As Terri is led further and further into Gillis' wanton web, she experiences lust and pleasure as she never has before. Whether at the hands of an unknown man, in a romantic rendezvous with Gillis' bisexual manservant Zebedy Colt, or engaged in a bondage-laced tryst with Gillis himself, Terri Hall finds herself in the throes of a sensual spell from which there is no escape. While the film can be a bit rough at times, there's no denying the care and passion that went into its making. All of the actors are superb, the sets are magnificently atmospheric, and the plot contains its fair share of twists and turns. A great pick for anyone into B & D style sex or male-dominant mayhem."

Starring: One of the landmarks of porn, Gerald Damiano reworks the themes of the "Story of O" to create at stylish gothic story of one women's sexual awakening at the hands of a self-loathing aristocrat played by Jamie Gillis. Terri Hall is the naive Joanna who under goes a series of degradations until she's strong enough to stand alone from her controller.
Shot in 1975 after "Deep Throat" and "The Devil in Miss Jones" made porn acceptable to the mainstream, this has all the style and mystery of a Euro horror film. And Gillis and Hall are top notch. This is where Jamie perfected his women-hating bit.
Scorching. Hall's journey is slow but increasingly kinky affair, from her first passionless fuck with Gillis to the bondage bit that likely made audiences uncomfortable in '7
Hall makes it work. The scene where Gillis makes her service three men at once is a classic. Though we've seen hundreds of scenes like it since, you'll flinch as one guy prepares her ass for penetration, all because it's done with such intimacy.
It moves too slow for most porn hounds, and the scene where Gillis receives a blow job from his butler, Zebedy Colt, will make your skin crawl. What was supposed to shock 25 years ago still does.
A 0. That's for the quality of the film, not the video reproduction, which is too dark and has poor sound.

Personal Review
One of the best productions you will ever see in porn. Sensually photographed, elegantly written, this is a visual masterpiece of eroticism! Hall gives her finest adult film appearance! Although the subject matter won’t appeal to everyone this is a must see for serious connoisseurs of classic adult filmmaking. Not as sinister as Devil’s Ecstasy, but more bold in sexual taboos. Viewer beware! PR 5
Sex Scene Sequence
1. After first charming Joanna (Teri), Jason (Gillis) shows his darker side after dinner by having his date pull up her dress and bend over the dining table to receive his cock!
2. (No Sex) A beautiful choreographed nude dance performance by Joanna (Teri was a professional ballet dancer) and the Butler (Zeb Colt).
3. Joanna is willing to do anything for Jason, so she serves three gentlemen while he watches her take a cock up each orifice at the same time.
4. Joanna dreams of hands all over her in a beautifully done act.
5. Joanna is visited by the Butler, who provides her with erotic tenderness. The camera work shows superb, sensual close-up action at its best!
6. Jason ties Joanna up and whips her before Gina (Juliet) shows her the other end of the whip. She shoves it up her cunt!
7. After her punishment, Gina takes Joanna to another room and takes care of the pain in a 69 position.
8. In front of the fireplace, Jason gives his dog on a leash (Joanna) his hard bone! She sucks on him until he blows and he makes her swallow all of it.
9. Joanna sucks another man until he cums in her mouth before she goes to the next man and starts sucking him.
10. The Butler serves his master well! Colt performs oral sex on Gillis!!
11. (No Sex) The Butler shaves Joanna’s pussy before cutting off her hair before a surprise ending that is as sick as anything, but so appropriate!
