San Francisco based Jim & Artie Mitchell were at the forefront of bringing the sexual revolution to American cinema. Working within their filmmaking collective known as Cinema 7, the brothers and their group of regular artistic collaborators created dozens of intelligent, thought provoking, and radically minded erotic feature and short films. Mitchell Brothers Film Group will bring their extraordinary body of work to Blu-ray and 4K UHD in deluxe, restored editions, many of which will be coming to disc for the first time.
At the height of their popularity, The Mitchell Brothers oversaw the production of what was arguably their most unusual film to date: a lavish period piece directed by Broadway star Sharon McKnight, and adapted from an notorious erotic novel -- THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A FLEA.
Teenage Belle lives in the bucolic French countryside, living a mostly pious life, until the learned Father Ambrose catches her engaged in a most indecent act. Promising to spare her scandal if she gives herself fully to service the needs of the church, Belle is soon indoctrinated to the carnal habits of the priesthood as Ambrose, along with Fathers Clement and Superior, instruct her in the art of giving pleasure. But when Belle’s lecherous uncle, M. Verbouc learns of the whole affair, he too begins to desire his niece’s sweet flesh…
A pastiche of hypocritical Victorian mores, THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A FLEA stars Jean Jennings (Defiance of Good), Annette Haven (All Night Long), Paul Thomas (Getting Personal), John Holmes (Prisoner of Paradise), and character actor John Tate (TV’s Dynasty, The Day of the Triffids). Effortlessly witty and lavishly produced, Mitchell Brothers Film Group is proud to bring this ribald classic to Blu-ray, newly restored and as an added bonus, the newly restored disc premiere of The Mitchell Brothers' 1976 rarity C.B. MAMAS starring Leslie Bovee (Take Off) and Desiree West (Sex World).

"Read the Autobiography years ago and now I have seen the film. Great release lots of fun. Love the packaging with book and poster. CB Mamas was a nice bonus. Another Mitchell Brothers Film Group Release that comes Highly Recommended."
"Flea is a well made erotic tale of deceit and coercion. CB Mamas on the other hand has a little print damage and is a whole lot kinkier - incest/schoolgirl and squirting breast milk"
"McKnight’s confident debut direction, strong visual style, and thoughtfully staged sex scenes give this otherwise thin bedroom farce more credibility than it deserves. Unfortunately, the weak script and the decision to retain the protagonist’s age from the novel cast the film’s sexuality in an uncomfortably sleazy light. Still, the inclusion of C. B. Mamas helps make this a worthwhile addition to ever growing Mitchell Brothers collection."
"Great double feature in super packaging. Restoration is superb as well."
"Another gem produced by the Mitchell Bros. Not on par with Behind or Ressurection but still a must own and solid entry in porn history. The actors are top notch and the director woman pov clearly elevate the ensemble."
"won't rest til we get every single mitchell bros production released! Both of these are delightful, and of course as with the other MB releases, restorations are gorgeous, and the supplements are stellar."
"Another great release. Beautiful packaging and great content."
"Having recently discovering the Mitchell Bros films, this one was a fun one! The V. O was funny. The packaging was nice, and the C. B. Mamas was a nice inclusion."
"The MBFG releases continue to surprise. Much different style of film than other studios released at the time. Excellent packaging as always."
"Enjoyed both of the films here, both with hot girls and scenes and good stories to boot. Great quality, definitely recommend!"
