No sound makes me wonder about the plot. Is the woman on the street an intentional sex worker or supposedly lured by the money? Why does the first woman leave after a partial blowjob? What makes the maid decide that getting raped is fun?
Oh that all makes sense, it’s overpowered 1920s wannabe-viagra and erections lasting too long require immediate attention, so he gets it attended to again.
At least it doesn’t necessarily need to be positive to be interesting in this community. Modern porn is for getting off; old porn is a cultural curiosity.
it was the 1920's, which was a very liberating era, even more than the 60's, by comparison. We just need to take a look at the changes feminine clothing underwent during the time. Sexual freedom and expectations included.
maids, from the victorian era and even before, occupied a very grey space
There was a non-written rule that maids were available for all required tasks (in Portugal, during the dictatorship, it was even codified into law) which would include sexual services. It was common knowledge, a standard practice upheld by the logic that people that entered such menial working positions came from lower social strata, so they should do as asked to keep their jobs. With no distinction between men and women. So, and returning to the clip, the maid getting jumped as she was would be almost expected from her. For current days, horrible, then, common.
An anecdote: a cousin of mine was a maid her entire life, starting when she was 16 and retiring already in her sixties. Never married. She died a very well-off woman. Discreet, even somewhat prudish, she worked mostly for widowed men, celibatarians or in small scale, independent, hotels, frequented by travellers. And she never had trouble finding new work, often having recommendation from one place to the next.
Many women in my family had short incursions into this working reality and the way they spoke about it was heavily codified and only between themselves.
I was thinking more about sound, resolution, camera angles, cuts. All that stuff and modern pornstar bodies. Beauty standards have changed a million times since then but how could they not love Gabbie Carters swinging tits?
You could kill a 1920s man by showing him modern porn.
I don't know, it's not like that was tame. The film technology was poor, but it wasn't less explicit.

Yeah, I was kind of confused too. I think the plot they were going for was:

Yeah, that's the way I saw it. Not positive.

Porn is a cultural curiosity, regardless.
Two additions to the discussion:

Fingers in the ass and a blowjob at the same time?!
Advanced technique. Should be made more common place.
