    SZArkoffs take on DeSades life. One too many pairs of boobs, but enjoyable nonetheless. KDullea was as sexy as always.

    the Marquis de Sade is one of my heroes, without him Sadism wouldnt exit, Ive seen a lot of films based on his work but this could be an intersting back story!

    If the movie was called "The Young Nobleman" or something, it would work better. Entertaining, but I never bought that this character was the famously sinful and indulgent Marquis.
