*** This review may contain spoilers ***
Released to the swankier selection of adult screening venues circa 1982, WANDA WHIPS WALL STREET marks a turning point in Larry Revene's directorial body of work which ultimately encompasses a mere eleven titles, ranging from effective to excellent. Although most of his subsequent creative efforts would still pass through Chuck Vincent's Platinum Pictures for distribution's sake, it shows lil' Larry checking his wingspan and preparing to fly from the safety of his mentor's nest. His inaugural endeavors as a fledgling filmmaker, SIZZLE and FASCINATION, had been frequently mistaken by the masses for bona fide Vincent ventures with the erstwhile DoP generally assumed to meekly regurgitate His Master's Voice as some sort of compensation in kind for professional services rendered thus-far.
Like Vincent's genre-bending examples ROOMMATES and IN LOVE, WANDA was wholly intended to escape the ever narrowing confines of the carnal circuit with its focus gradually shifting away from the explicit sex towards the expanding of cinema's more traditional production and entertainment values, opening up previously virgin territories that wouldn't touch anything hotter than R like legit movie theaters and cable TV, not to mention the burgeoning home video market. Its longevity seems only natural in retrospect as the majority of available T&A fodder was clumsily conceived crap containing but a fraction of the talent and scope found in adult at that time.
Cementing her status as Queen Bee of the hardcore hive, Veronica Hart shines as wicked Wanda Brandt, underneath whose deceptively demure demeanor beats the cold heart of a ruthless corporate shark. She will calculatedly inveigle her way into flourishing firms, basically stealing them right from under their owners' noses by siphoning away stock with the administrational aid of a crooked lawyer she's in cahoots with. Literally charming the pants off managing director Mr. Winston (one shot Jese Paul de Valois), she lands the position of "executive coordinator of human services" at marketing monolith Tyler Securities & Brokerage Inc.
Characteristically clueless chairman Sanford Tyler (silver-haired Richard Lowenkron, also appearing in Chris Covino's underrated BABE) watches helplessly from the sidelines as his empire is gnawed away in chewable chunks at an alarming rate by the mysterious "Labelle Bros". The board wholeheartedly agrees that drastic measures need to be taken and settle on shady corporate investigator Lou Perrini (Jamie Gillis). He may prove her match in more ways than one as he arrives in grand style by luxury yacht across the Hudson River, trusty sidekick Ed Drummond (Ron Jeremy) in tow.
Dragging poor slob stockbroker Marty (priceless Jamie Kantor, also in MODEL BEHAVIOR) into the broom closet for what he believes will be the erotic experience of a lifetime, Wanda steals his clothes and ID badge in order to gain entrance to the Stock Exchange trading floor. The plan is to dump a ton of Tyler shares at basement prices, thereby dramatically decreasing the value of the remaining stock yet to pilfer. Disenchanted fellow financier Lisa Rogers (Samantha Fox) figures out Wanda's scheme right away but has a personal axe to grind with a monopolizing behemoth "whose sharks have gobbled up all the minnows" in one of countless quotable lines in Rick Marx's superior script. While the scene does include a shot of the actual Exchange taken from the visitor's gallery, back in the day when such could be achieved sans permit, most of it plays out on a seamlessly inserted mock-up set in Larry's own loft !
Wanda seems to have become an unstoppable force of nature by now as the final majority bid of a cool million Tyler shares will put her in complete control of the company. Such transaction causes a predictable panic outbreak among traders as the Dow Jones plummets to depths unknown, forcibly freezing all financial activity over the course of one fateful weekend pending further investigation. Anxiously awaiting to ink the deal come Monday morning, Wanda has to throw Perrini off the scent by whisking him away to a secluded cabin in the woods for some much needed R&R. Fans of both superstars will not be in the least disappointed by their amorous al fresco acrobatics. Holding down the fort, Ed's finally catching on to the truth behind the overtake operation but will he be able to get word to his boss with the resourceful Janie doing her level best to distract him ? Tune in and find out...
Even though they were both "above the title names" in adult at the time, Veronica Hart and Jamie Gillis were not that often pornographically paired, apart from Gary Graver's splendid AMANDA BY NIGHT and supporting the shining star in a couple of Lenny Kirtman's Seka showcases. Too bad, because the heat was most definitely there and Revene wisely allowed their oneupmanship to build up a full head of steam before the final reel pay-off, pulling out all the stops with lush green surroundings and gorgeous Giallo-type music, making this meeting of intimate industry giants one for the blue books. Their "inconvenient" on-screen relationship is wittily mirrored by the developing attraction between Tish (then still "T.J.") Ambrose and the hardest working man in hardcore, Ron Jeremy, which is so deftly handled as to occasionally eclipse the film's established stars.

Films That Time Forgot
Stocks & Blondes (1984)
By Noel Murray
Director: Arthur Greenstands, Larry Revene
How odd is it that between Wood with her gal-pals and Hart with hers, Stocks & Blonds/Wanda Whips Wall Street scores better on the Bechdel Test than most non-porn movies?
Available on DVD from Image.
