I rate Anyone But My Husband a solid 5, if only for the stunning C. J. Laing as Nora. She is in almost every scene and dominates all. She is beautiful, with an almost feral sexuality, vulnerable, resilient, ultimately triumphant. I can't shake the beautiful images of the shape of her mouth, her breasts, the look on her face of sensual abandon, especially in her fisting scene. And, the play of expressions on her face when masturbating with the champagne bottle is astonishing; this is one of the most erotic scenes ever.

The movie is laced with quiet humor, often in almost throwaway lines and in quirky characters. A favorite moment: following a scene in which Nora's friend Sylvia has been vigorously impaled on a truly enormous cock, which then Nora has deep throated (and I mean every last millimeter), the two of them are seen on the street with Sylvia shambling along stiff-legged and sore below while Nora croaks softly in a hoarse whisper from the aftereffects of each one's experience.

I should note that this disc is made from a print of fairly rough quality, though very watchable. Just don't expect a pristine picture. Personally, as one who frequently listens to vintage opera recordings from the teens and 20s, a little fuzz doesn't bother me, being screened by my mental static filter. But, do be aware.
