Hot Young Widows (1978)

 

(Original Title: Veuves en chaleur) A creep uses the obituaries to get access to grieving widows to take advantage of them.

Oliver (Charlie Schreiner) reads the obituaries to learn about the dead husbands and trick their grieving wives.

Dominique (Virginie Caillat aka Valerie Martin) is wearing black, recently at her husband's funeral.

Oliver makes up stories on how he knew the husbands.

He comforts Dominique and one thing leads to another in her fragile state.

Oliver quickly moves on to another widow - the wealthy Ghislaine (Emmanuelle Parèze) 

Ghislaine's maid Antoinette (Françoise Maillot)

Ghislaine doesn't need much manipulation to have sex

Antoinette dutifully joins in

Oliver leaves as Ghislaine and Antoinette are still going at it.

Moving right along to Simone (Agnès Lemercier aka Jenny Feeling) the next widow

A bit of last minute research before meeting the next widow

Mrs. Léon (Marion Schultz) is prepared to pay the imposter, but money is not what he's after.

Onward to the next grieving household where he meets Valérie (Karine Gambier)

Valérie introduces Oliver to the still grieving Liane (Marie-Claude Viollet)

Their maid Julie (Marie-Dominique Cabanne)

Oliver is in luck; even the maid joins in.

Plot twist - Oliver's friend Alain has had a loss. He's visited by Danielle Troger Alexandra Sand and Diane Dubois who are there to comfort him in his time of sorrow.

Danielle Troger comforts the weeping Alaine

Of course this is all bullshit, and Alaine just wants to get in Danielle's pants

Alexandra Sand (blonde) and Diane Dubois (brunette) comfort Oliver

They head to the bedroom; Oliver gets his turn with Danielle

Then everyone gets involved

Alexandra is glad to be here in their time of grief

As is Diane

After, Alaine and Oliver smile at each other, thinking they've once again pulled a fast one.

Little do they know, the three ladies actually pulled a fast one on them! THE END

I don't think I need to point out this was repetitive.  But I can get past that.  What I can't get past is the way the sex scenes are filmed.  Never been a fan of just showing close-ups that may as well be body doubles.  Easily ninety-nine percent of the sex scene footage is just ultra zoom-ins on penetration.   This could have been a fun story with all manner of madcap sleaze; instead it's mostly tight shots of sweaty pendulous sweaty balls. No thanks.
