BODY LUST opens with secretary Valerie Martin's going down on her boss (Gérard Gregory) behind his desk. He leaves the office and she resumes typing. A visitor (Jack - Jacques Gatteau) arrives to see the boss and sits down to wait, but it isn't long before he is standing behind her and putting his hands down her blouse. The boss returns and catches them at it on the office couch. She gets fired and takes Jack home with her. The boss is the only person in the film who takes offence at finding his or her sexual partner in the act with another.
Directed by Pierre B. Reinhard, Body Lust leans on a strong ensemble — Virginie Caillat, Diane Dubois, Cathy Stewart — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1978.
