Christa 1971 Written by Jack O'Connell with additional dialogue by Bent Christensen and Gene Price, directed by Jack O'Connell. The poster boasts that Manfred Mann produced the rock soundtrack. It was a fair soundtrack but nothing I would buy as a soundtrack record. The movie was released in the US under the title Swedish Fly Girls even though Christa is Danish and much of the action takes place there.
Birte Tove plays Christa, she's a stewardess who's a single mom. Her young son lives with her parents while she jets around Europe. The father of her child is a driven businessman who wants Christa and his son. She's not interested in him but he's a mean spirited dick and he's hired a private eye to document her sex life. If Christa won't come back to him he's going to take their son because she's an unfit mother. During the movie he ruins his family's 200 year old fortune, instead of trying to fix things, he kills himself. Dying in a flaming car wreck couldn't happen to a more deserving guy.
Much of the movie has Christa, and some of her flying pals, running about without clothes on. There's even a couple of visits to a nude beach. It's got some humor, some drama, a lot of bare flesh and a happy ending. About average for this sort of film. There are hundreds of them out there. You can check out all the flesh on YouTube.
