Fanny Hill (2007)
A young girl, Fanny Hill, has to make her way in the world, after she's left an orphan. Another girl from her village leads her to London. Fanny makes her way to an employee bureau, where a madame trolls for unsuspecting new employees. Fanny is being groomed for her first client, which fetches a high price, since it will take her "maiden head," when a young gentlemen falls in love with her on first sight. They runaway, live together, she gets pregnant, then he suddenly disappears. Fanny miscarriages and becomes the mistress of an older gentlemen who had seen her before in the brothel house. The gentlemen and her have a fight, and she leaves to work for the same upper-class whore house that the girl from her village also works. There's conflict between her and the girl from her village, the older gentlemen starts trouble, and her first love is still no where in sight.
I like it for its hilarity, made even more hilarious for including the women who played Mrs. Bennet from the 1995 Pride & Prejudice as a salacious madame.
Favorite scene is probably everyone else's favorite scene from this film: the now experienced Fanny taking the virginity of a young man, or as they say, to help him complete his education.
F to P - "Hold me tight Percy."
F - "Will you give me a kiss Percy?"
P - "Is it time to climb on your back now Fanny?"
F - "I think we may do it face to face."
P - "How shall we do that?
F - "Like this. Suppose I lift my leg like this, then put my other one ... " She starts to moan.
P's father watching through a peep whole, shouts - "Come on my son!"
P shouting - "It's in! It's in!"
P's father: "Well done! Well done!"
