Private Lessons

1981 · 1h 27m · Comedy, Romance

IMDb 5.1 Metacritic 34

Skip this one. With a 0% on Rotten Tomatoes and a 5.1 on IMDb, Private Lessons is a creaky '80s sex comedy that hasn't aged well—and frankly, the premise of an adult seducing a 15-year-old doesn't land as playful today, just uncomfortable. There's nothing here worth your time tonight.

Plot

Phillip Filmore is a naive, 15-year-old, preoccupied with sex, who develops a crush on Nicole Mallow, the new 30-something, French housekeeper and sitter to look after him when Phillip's father is out of town for the summer on a "business" trip. But Mr. Filmore's unscrupulous chauffeur, Lester Lewis, takes advantage of Phillip's crush on Nicole to hire her to seduce the youth, then draws her into a plot to fake her own death in a blackmail scheme aimed to drain Phillip's trust fund.
