The Debasement Of Lori Lansing A Whipped Ass Feature Presentation Starring Julia Ann Instant

For the lifestyle and entertainment viewer, this is not a "date night" film. It is a study. It is a mirror held up to the entertainment industry’s treatment of its aging female stars. It asks the question: If a woman consents to her own humiliation, is she a victim, or is she the ultimate master of her domain?

Meanwhile, lifestyle bloggers have dissected Julia Ann’s press tour outfits, noting a shift from her typical vibrant colors to stark blacks and greys—a method-acting bleed into real life.
