Fanny Hill

The bodice-ripper that begat all bodice-rippers, John Clelland's 18th century book, 'Fanny Hill: Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure' is the story of a young, orphaned country girl, Fanny Hill (Rebecca Night), who falls into prostitution and works her way up the social ladder of bawdy 18th Century London. With a mischievous glint in her eye and plenty of knowing winks, Fanny relates her journey from wholesome naif to worldly woman. After losing her parents to smallpox, the poor country girl travels to London, where she falls into prostitution under the guidance of an infamous madam. Forced to take a series of lovers to survive, Fanny learns to relish sensual delights - but reserves her heart for her one true love.
