Mau Mau Sex Sex

"....the most colorful characters!"

New York Time Out


Mau Mau Sex Sex
Dir. Ted Bonnitt. 2000. 80 mins. N/R. Documentary. Perhaps you've wondered, while scanning video store shelves stocked with vintage exploitation jaw-droppers like Goldilocks and the Three Bares (1963) and Trader Hornee (1970), what manner of people were behind such productions. Mau Mau Sex Sex attempts to answer that question by profiling producer-distributors David F. Friedman and Dan Sonney, two of the most colorful characters in a notoriously colorful business. But it's packed with sleazy clips, and we should be grateful to director Ted Bonnitt for getting 84-year-old Sonney and 76-year-old Friedman on film before it's too late.—MM
