Turkish 'erotik' Films History
The Short Unhappy Life of
Mine Mutlu |
| Born in 1948, Mine Mutlu began acting in conventional Turkish films just before her 20th birthday in 1967, which was several years before the start of the 'Erotik' Film Era in Turkey. In total she appeared in 69 movies -- 54 of them were conventional, non-'erotik'. |
Mine Mutlu provides all the inspiration that Ali Poyrazoğlu needs in this scene from Elma Şekeri ![]() Click! | Furthermore, of the 15 'erotik' films in which she did appear, most were soft-core 'sex-farce' films like Elma Şekeri (Candied Apple), the story of a hen-pecked husband (Ali Poyrazoğlu) who finally finds true-love (Mine Mutlu) while escaping the clutches of his overbearing wife (Sevda Karaca) and his flighty sexpot lover (Senar Seven)... |
In those sex-farce films, Mine Mutlu played opposite comedic male actors like Ali Poyrazoğlu, Aydemir Akbaş, Sermet Serdengeçti, and Orçun Sonat who made the audiences laugh -- but she sometimes seemed distant, somewhat aloof, not identifying with the other players (nor with her audience)... a melancholy figure. Her wistful appearance seemed to say that she wasn't actually a participant in these films, wasn't actually doing these things, wasn't like the other female actors...
Mine Mutlu's first conventional film in 1967 was Bana Kurşun Işlemez (Bullets can't hurt me). And although she only acted in a minor role, the film is noteworthy because it was directed by Yılmaz Güney, one of Turkey's most controversial film personalities.
Mine Mutlu and Arzu Okay provided the heat in Oksal Pekmezoğlu's 1974 sex-farce Olmaz Böyle Şey ![]() Click for enlargement! | Mine Mutlu's 2nd conventional film (also in 1967) was Pranga Mahkumu (Shackled Court) -- and after 'Pranga' she acted in more than 40 other conventional movies before agreeing to take on her first full-fledged 'erotik' film role, in the sex-farce Beş Tavuk Bir Horoz (Five Chickens, One Rooster) in 1974. |
