Trivia:

'Weller, Peter' was originally offered the part of Gene but passed on the script because he felt the part was too "racy". The role eventually went to Sam Bottoms who came to the production office without any notice because he had seen the film listed in the trades and "liked the title."

Quotes:

Lillian: You looked right through me, but you never once saw me.

Finally a chick flick with the guts to tell it like it is!

Forget about the fairy tales, this is the way it really is. Pretty girls who get the prince find themselves trapped in twisted castles. Lillian is a kept woman and has it all - stunning looks, great body, expensive clothes, she even drives a Porsche. But wait til you find out what she has to do to keep it! Jade Henham could have just stood there and let the camera photograph her, but no. Henham can actually act. She gives us another side of Lillian - the scared, vulnerable little girl who's falling apart at the seams. Sam Bottoms is worthwhile in a skirt. His full frontal nudity scene is worth my $9. The movie is slow in spots and the rest of the cast is weak, though Luke is not bad on the eyes. But the end is worth the wait. Who is this Jake Torem and what else has he done? Man does this guy have the guts to give it to you raw!
