You may hate yourself in the morning, but from the funky '70s fashions to a whirlpool sex scene with Adam West (holy career nadir, Batman!), this Happy Hooker three-way is B-movie bliss! Georgy Girl turns call girl in The Happy Hooker (1975). Lynn Redgrave stars as Xavier Hollander, the plucky and cheerfully independent madam whose 1971 autobiography sold a staggering 17 million copies. The series takes a brisk, burlesque turn in The Happy Hooker Goes to Washington (1977), starring Joey Heatheron (that's more like it) as Xavier, "an honest hooker looking for a little peace" who is subpoenaed to appear before the Senate Select Committee on Sexual Excess in America in the wake of congressional sexual scandals. In The Happy Hooker Goes Hollywood (1980), a Hollywood producer (West) does to Xavier (Martine Beswick this time) what she does to her clients, and she takes revenge by forming her own production company to bring her life story to the screen. Anyone seeking serious softcore will not be happy with Hooker--these films are more comic than carnal. But if you have a fetish for slumming character actors and comedians, this trilogy amply delivers. Washington features Joe E. Ross (the "ooh-ooh" guy from Car 54, Where Are You?), Ray Walston (My Favorite Martian), comedian Phil Foster, Larry Storch (F-Troop), David White (Larry Tate on Bewitched), flamboyant entertainer Rip Taylor, Billy Barty doing an unaccountable James Cagney imitation, and even "Cheswick" from One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest as a network television censor. In addition to West, Hollywood features Richard Deacon (Mel Cooley on The Dick Van Dyke Show), Edie Adams as herself, Phil Silvers as a wheelchair-bound unscrupulous movie tycoon, and incomparable cult-fave Dick Miller (A Bucket of Blood) as one of Xavier's customers. Pleasures come no guiltier than these relics from a more sexually libertine time. --Donald Liebenson

Soy fan de Xaviera Hollander y la primera parte, la basada en el libro, es la única película buena de éste paquete. Las otras películas son realmente pésimas. La segunda parte es la que se lleva el premio mayor de lo mala que es, la tercera parte es mala, pero la segunda si es el colmo.
Si compran éste DVD piensen que sólo están comprando la primera parte y, que las otras dos son un "regalo" que no importa.

In the early to mid-1970's a novel hit the best sellers list called "The Happy Hooker." It was an autobiography written by Xaviara Hollander in the 1970s and was published by Dell Publications. It became a Number One Best Seller. The Happy Hooker: My Own Story
Xaviara Hollander came from Holland. She was the daughter of a doctor. For a time when she first came to the United Stes, she was working as a translator for the United Nations in New York City.
She had been ... Read More

Title "The Happy Hooker" is very misleading.
I'm not sure what the director/s were trying to do with this film. Frankly the story was all over the place.
Heck "Saturday Night Fever" has more "ACTION" shots than this movie. However I am a Lyn Redgrave fan, so I'll say this movie is just SO, SO. Not really worth buying.

Joey Heatherton brings her radiant persona to he big screen in this great film! Looking beauiful and sexy she protrays Xavier Hollander like no one has! lot of sex and comedy in this wonderful film! Should have garnered an Oscar nomination for Ms. Heatherton!

This movie was a story about a woman who breaks up with her fiance and finds herself in an American city sleeping with many different men. She deciedes instead of doing it for free she should start charging for her services. She eventually becomes a madame and ends up in jail. This is the basis premise for the movie. There is not much else to this movie. I found it to be funny. It was not meant to be a comedy. I think it was made in the seventies. It has all sorts of cheese ball outfits. It ... Read More
