Rebecca leaves her nice-guy husband (Roger Mutton) and--wearing nothing but a fur-lined leather jumpsuit--hops on her beloved motorcycle to meet up with her lover (Alain Delon). This 1968 erotic film combines trippiness, existentialism, and gorgeous footage of the European countryside to create a unique and intriguing tale. The lovely young Faithfull, then-girlfriend of Mick Jagger and a singer in her own right, was a major sex symbol of the Swinging London scene. Her sexy role here garnered plenty of attention. The movie is one of only a handful of films directed by Cardiff, a renowned and prolific cinematographer. [More]

[DVD Details]
 
 
  • Marianne Faithfull stars as the leather-clad Rebecca, a love-torn woman who escapes her fiancé and mounts her Harley for a cross-country road trip to her passionate but cruel lover, Daniel (Alain Delon), recounting their steamy affair in explicit detail along the way. Girl on a Motorcycle (aka Naked Under Leather) promises raunchy sex scenes shown with psychedelic intensity, truly capturing the late 1960's zeitgeist of liberty and free love. Beautifully shot, star-studded, sexy and off-beat, this is a wild ride of movie!
