Tinto Brass was once a rather connected character in the world of European Cinema in the fifties and sixties as this highlights that the degree in which he had been in the company of many of the significant people who would go on to make their marks in the history of film. It's just a misplaced and confusing mess when it comes to what it is that Tinto would actually do. His name would essentially become synonymous with softcore porn.
One of Tinto's biggest successes was 'Salon Kitty' (1976) which took a look at the methods of the Nazi Regimes efforts to spy on their own through brothels. After this one would turn out to be one of his biggest…

Just loads of academic posturing on how Tinto Brass was more than just a director of asses in tandem with copious amounts of b-roll of him grabbing a tit or reaching dangerously far between a woman's legs.
Not so much "Is Tinto Brass?" as a fundamental existential question, but rather "Is Tinto Brass...?" in the sense that I never got to hear the second part of the question, because, frankly, I couldn't stand it any longer and eventually turned it off.
