Redlands (2014)




"Vienna" is a model in Redlands, California, where she shares a home with her musician boyfriend Zac.  Vienna's day job at an office pays the rent on their place, and her lingerie and nude model work finances the "fun" stuff like studio time for Zac.  If you're thinking Zac sounds like a bit of a deadbeat boyfriend, well, you wouldn't be wrong.

Vienna's latest series of modelling gigs are with Allan, a divorced older man whose ambitions to be a photographer seem fairly prurient.  Still, either because she sincerely believes it or because he pays well, Vienna speaks highly of his growing skills and is keen to keep working with him.

Unfortunately, Zac is living proof she has very bad judgement when it comes to men ...

I'm not really sure what the point of Redlands is - other than to have Nicole Fox show off her admittedly impressive body, anyway.  I mean, I guess you can argue that it's a realistic account of what would probably happen to a young woman who is overly trusting of a creepy guy she barely knows, but I'm not sure what the entertainment value in that is supposed to be.

Credit to the guy playing Allan, though: he's pretty good in his role, even when interacting with some significantly less convincing performers.
