Amazingly well-directed by the uneven Tim McDonald (whose best work includes TALK DIRTY TO ME PART 2 and PLAY ME AGAIN, VANESSA) and produced by legendary David Friedman, ALEXANDRA represents an unusually ambitious approach to porn, a sexed-up rendition of Joe Mankiewicz's delectably ironic melodrama A LETTER TO THREE WIVES no less. What may be most surprising of all is just how close to the source material this version actually stays, faithfully transposing characters and situations from the original to the fornication film format.
Hollywood legends Ann Sothern, Linda Darnell and Jeanne Crain as the titular 3 wives have been replaced by their adult industry counterparts Rachel Ashley (billed as "Ashley Summer"), the late Lauren Wilde (perhaps better known under her "Tina Ross" alias) and Joanna Storm respectively. Each of them excels at playing an upper middle class (and desperate ?) suburban housewife who secretly harbors a skeleton in her closet. The frequently heard yet never more than glimpsed Alexandra (Eve Sternberg for the body, voice over narration by Stephanie Rogers), a childhood acquaintance of their husbands, threatens to expose all of their dirty little secrets as she so helpfully informs them over the phone the very day the three of them are due for a charity picnic. She also announces that she will leave their lives for good that same evening, taking one of their better halves with her ! The ladies' guilty reminiscences make for the movie's many exciting erotic episodes.
