There is something to be said for the more liberal attitudes toward nudity and sex in Europe, and that something is Olivia Pascal. Although her hair has appeared in various tones of brunette, Olivia's eyes are always seductively hooded, her mouth is forever slightly parted and she exudes an eternal schoolgirl insouciance. The fact that she was able to transition into a successful, long-running career in German television in the mid 1980s after reigning the previous decade as the Continent's queen of softcore erotica attests to the open-mindedness of our heavy-breathing brothers across the sea. Olivia's title turn as Vanessa (1977), in which she excelled at girl-to-girl nipple fencing and muff cupping and squeezed a bunch of red grapes between her soft thighs so the sweet wine dripped down and mixed with the nectar from her honeypot, attests to the innovative and licentious liberality of Fatherland filmmakers.

Much of Pascal's best work occurred in films with German names, but her endearing hint of an overbite can be savored sans tongue-twisting title in Sex on the Run (1979), Cola, Candy & Chocolate (1979), and Coconuts (1985).
