The biggest stars, best directors, and highest production values; that is a QUALITY X film. These deluxe Blu-ray editions of some of the genre's masterpieces, along with plenty of hidden gems, offer beautiful restorations and plentiful bonus features, all presented in homage to its namesake of esteemed New York film distributor, Mature Pictures, the company which almost single handedly raised the bar for outstanding sex films, and whose films will be included in this fittingly elegant collection.
Wanda is a hard-edged hooker who, despite having made a decent living in her trade, cannot overcome her pervasive loneliness. Willie is an illegal immigrant seeking happiness and prosperity in his adopted country, but instead finding only hardship and despair. After the two have an unlikely meeting, they hatch a plan to marry, thus getting Willie his US citizenship and Wanda a companion. Their plan seems to work at first, as the couple at last believe they'll be able to find some contentment; that is until money runs low and both Wanda and Willie are forced back into a life of crime and wanton sex...

Reviews
Unexpectedly good
"An unexpectedly good film. Really enjoyed Herschel Savage's acting. The audio commentary was also appreciated."
— Nathan M. (5/5)
Downbeat erotica
"Part satire, part drama, this film offers a somber look at two people who exploit each other just to get by. The ending is rather abrupt and without real conclusion. Although it feels light on eroticism there are a couple stand-out scenes. Restoration is top notch."
— Noel H. (4/5)
Genuinely great
"Loved this drama and the performances were great."
— Nick C. (5/5)
Worth buying for Nina Hartley alone
"The restoration on this one is genuinely fantastic — and I mean that in the most literal sense, because Nina Hartley's scene is a revelation. Growing up in the 90s she was just kind of always already middle-aged in everything I'd seen, so seeing her here is a genuine jaw-drop moment. An absolute knockout. That alone makes this worth owning, but VS also delivered a gorgeous spot gloss slipcover and the whole package arrived in perfect condition as always. This one earns its place on the shelf in every way."
— Jeremy A. (5/5)
A Solid Drama
"This film represents the best of classic adult cinema: a drama very much about sex and how it fits within logic of contemporary society, rather a straightforward presentation of it. It prompts questions about exploitation that reflect back on itself and its viewers. Thoughtful and unflinching."
— Sean B. (5/5)
Great Cast
"Good adult film with a great cast. All the Vinegar Syndrome and Melusine adult films I have purchased have been either good or great."
— Peter D. (4/5)

Beautiful release and amazing Casey Scott commentary.
"Solid golden era adult movie and showcase of the talents of the legendary Henri Pachard. Great performances and the restoration of the picture is perfect. Very cool reverse sleeve with VHS style artwork. The highlight of this release is, as always, the commentary, the legendary Casey Scott moderates an excellent commentary on the film with Colleen Brennan."
