Michael Powell teamed with actor James Mason (who also co-produced) to make a film loosely based on the life of controversial Australian artist Norman Lindsay. Age Of Consent stars Mason as a jaded painter who heads Down Under looking for a way to revitalize his creative soul. His self-imposed exile is interrupted by Cora, an uninhibited young woman on her own journey of self-discovery. The Age of Consent (1969), is Powell's final film, centers on James Mason as a disenchanted painter who finds a new muse in a tropical island model (a radiant and sensual, often nude Helen Mirren, in her first movie role).

106分钟导演剪辑版。鲍威尔这会儿终于放飞自我了，跑到澳大利亚让海伦·米伦光着身子各种秀，她有个奸懒馋滑还拿海伦不穿衣服威胁画家男主角的奶奶，不知是不是鲍威尔心里对《偷窥狂》的风波还过不去。剧情给的很简单，心生厌倦的澳大利亚名画家返回家乡，在小岛上结识贫穷少女米伦·海伦，历经交流创作的过程最终好上了。片子基调给的比较轻挑，贯穿小岛和少女的纯美，也有几笔写现实的困窘，赡养费的压力、海伦祖孙的穷困之类，当然本片是个喜剧，所有困难终将解决的。有个设计很好：男主最后的钱被奸滑朋友盗走，气急败坏的当口，海伦找上门说现在可以恢复画画了，他马上喜笑颜开，甜得要命真是。海伦裸上身站海里那场戏的构图也很漂亮，鲍威尔的有些画面真是激情洋溢。海伦的身材十足肉弹，不过演少女缺说服力，肥厚臀部连片的橘皮组织太碍眼了
画家和海女的故事。海滩风景优美，写实。60年代的胶片电影色彩浓郁，线条粗砺。坏奶奶和坏朋友真的很气人啊。女主是英女王扮演专业户，不得不感慨岁月的魔力。
海伦·米伦这身材演杨贵妃蛮好。。
美丽的风景画
