In La pretora Edwige portrays a conservative and puritanical lady magistrate and her floozy twin sister. This makes for comedy of mistaken identity in the style of farce along with a tale of blackmail and corruption.
As with The Eroticist the movie's humour is used to make some serious points as it calls the establishment on it's corruption and hypocrisy as we meet censors who love pornography in a world where bribes grease the wheels of the judicial machine.
La pretora is a pretty sweet film with a comedy that hits the mark more than it misses. It is also pretty sexy. The film includes a scene where Edwige Fenech is posing for some Snow White themed dwarf sex stills for an adult comic. Priceless.
