A Cold Wind in August

Alexander Singer directed this low-budget independent American film from 1961 featuring Lola Albright in a sexy, tactile performance as a bored stripper in her late 30s who, as an afterthought, seduces her 17-year-old downstairs neighbor (Scott Marlowe). After bedding down the young virgin, the stripper discovers a kind of sexual ecstasy she never imagined in her wildest burlesque hallucinations. Unfortunately for her ecstasies, when the boy finds out her line of work, he is shocked and disgusted and he leaves her, moving on to sexual conquests with women closer to his own age.
