In all rooms, secretly listening equipment has been placed, with which a power-hungry soldier (Berger) wants to blackmail Hitler and his closest associates in order to seize power himself.

Sloppily made film following the tried-and-tested Tinto Brass recipe: more pubic hair than story. In my opinion, Miss Savoy is the only one who barely scores a passing grade. At least she has a handful of fun scenes. Otherwise, it is a succession of grotesque scenes with caricatured characters. Tinto Brass through and through.

I continue to be amazed that renowned actors—in this case Helmut Berger, Ingrid Thulin, and John Ireland—lend themselves to this kind of rubbish. It seems to me that the actual existence of the spy brothel “Salon Kitty” is eminently suitable as a subject for a serious drama film.

Nazisploitation set in the Salon Kitty brothel. A film based on facts. Twenty prostitutes recruited by the Nazis are tasked with compiling files on their clients. Their sessions with clients are also bugged. In this way, the Nazis obtain information about critics of the regime and about plots being hatched. A piece of history I knew nothing about. Interesting material for a film.

But then again. Nazisploitation, right? Instead of zooming in on exciting developments surrounding the wiretapping of brothel patrons, the film focuses primarily on physical activities. Initially still interesting and shocking when a pathologist manages to vividly illustrate Nazi racial doctrine using a number of corpses, but soon sliding into a repulsive descent into scenes in which the prospective Nazi prostitutes engage in sexual activity with midgets, the disabled, and exaggeratedly portrayed representatives of the Jewish and Gypsy sexes.

After completing their monstrous training, the Nazi prostitutes can get to work at Salon Kitty. And at Salon Kitty, no wish remains unfulfilled, and a grand demonstration of sexual deviance begins. Perhaps, with some goodwill, you could still attach a responsible label to it. Something about a worrying alienation from being human. Or perhaps something about the necessity of seeking out excesses as a means of still being able to feel something.

I no longer possessed that much goodwill after watching it. I had absolutely no desire to think about it seriously. Salon Kitty is pure exploitation that uses an interesting historical fact to treat the viewer to a heap of sexual aggression and fetishism. I didn't give a damn about it.

A real 70s movie, occasionally even comical.

the enormous "bushes of hair" which was normal at the time during wartime and long afterwards.

which is very striking now.

The film itself, I quite believe that this could be based on truth to some extent.

Many smart whores who (often unwittingly) ensured that talkative senior officers let slip some information.

Nice to have seen once, but that's all.
