Digitmovies explores one more time the territory of the Italian erotic comedy of the '70s by releasing for the very first time the complete OST in full stereo by Alessandro Alessandroni from the movie La signora gioca bene a scopa? (aka "Poker in Bed" ) directed in 1974 by Giuliano Carmineo and starring Carlo Giuffrè, Edwige Fenech, Didi Perego, Franca Valeri,Adriana Facchetti, Oreste Lionello, Enzo Cannavale, Enzo Andronico, Vittorio Fanfoni, Gigi Ballista, Enzo Robutti, Carla Mancini, Lia Tanzi and the complete OST in mono by Gianfranco Plenizio from L'infermiera (aka "The Secrets of a Sensuous Nurse) directed in 1975 by Nelo Rossati and starring Ursula Andress,Duilio Del Prete, Daniele Vargas, Mario Pisu,Luciana Paluzzi,Jack Palance, Carla Romanelli, Lino Toffolo, Marina Confalone, Stefano Sabelli. In "La signora gioca bene a scopa?" Michele (Giuffrè) is a stubborn poker game player who manages a shoe-shop in Parma. As a solution to his continous and huge gambling losses, he supplements his earnings with paid sexual performances by his female customers. The economical crisis is so big that Michele needs further help for his activities: Tonino (Delle Piane),the shop assistant, helps him out and very soon becomes the favourite of one of his wild female customers. Alessandro Alessandroni has written an amusing OST where he alternates a funny theme performed by Edda Dell'Orso with an erotic falsetto voice and introduced in "Titoli di Testa" (Tr.1).It gets reprised with delicious variations in Tr.2,Tr.4, Tr.6,Tr.9,Tr.12,Tr.14 and in a slow funeral-like symphonic reprise for the cemetery scene (Tr.15). This then gets alternated with a romantic love theme with latin flavour in Tr.5,Tr.8,Tr.10,Tr.11,Tr.13,Tr.16,Tr.18 and with mystic music for strings (Tr.7). In "L'infermiera" the owner of a winery, Leonida Bottacin (Pisu), who has recently become a widower, suffers a heart attack during a sexual act with the wife of the caretaker of the cemetery where his wife Ramona is buried. The man's relatives try to cause a second, fatal heart attack to the man so they can inherit the goods of the winery and to sell it all to the American businessman Mr. Kitch (Jack Palance). To realize this, the son-in-law Benito (Del Prete) calls his past lover Anna (Andress), a very sexy woman who will have to be Leonida's nurse so that the man will suffer a deadly heart attack. At the end the girl grows fond of the sick man and after having foiled the family's diabolical plan, she marries him, but during the honeymoon the old man suffers his second and lethal heart attack so that the girl will become the only heiress of his huge patrimony. For this pleasant Italian erotic comedy, where (may it be by coincidence) Ursula Andress and Luciana Paluzzi, the unforgettable Bond girls of the Connery era, appear together, Gianfranco Plenizio has written an elegant OST where a romantic love theme for trumpet, solo female voice and orchestra is featured, introduced in Tr.20, then reprised inTr.25,Tr.28,Tr.30,Tr.32, alternated with a second cheerful motif with a folk flavour (Tr.21,Tr.22,Tr.26,Tr.29), with a third brilliant motif Tr.24,Tr.31) and with American-flavoured music for the character of Mr.Kitch (Tr.23).
