About The Spanking (or The Memoirs of Mr. Leon - Spanking Professor)
Respectable Monsieur Léon, nicely portrayed by Antoine Fontaine, is an unassuming bank teller by day, lover for hire with a specialist sideline in spanking by night!
Directed by Claude Bernard-Aubert, The Spanking (or The Memoirs of Mr. Leon - Spanking Professor) leans on a strong ensemble — Antoine Fontaine, Ellen Earl, Liliane Allan — 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 drama titles of 1976.
