“Jane and the Tutor” is a 26-minute movie released by Roue in late 1980 or early 1981. The release was announced in Roue 13. This movie was once available from Roue by mail or at the RAM Books store in London but it is not currently available through the Roue website (www.roue.com) or any of the CalStar Direct websites like www.hotmovies.com.
“Jane and the Tutor” was the first movie released by Roue. The release was announced in Roue 13 in early 1981 and the announcement was repeated in Roue 14, 15 and 17. Roue 13 is the earliest issue of Roue I have ever seen so I can’t be absolutely certain the release wasn’t announced earlier but I have seen other references that describe this movie as being announced in Roue 13.
UPDATE (Feb 2022): I just got a look at a copy of Roue 10 and the ad shown above appears on page 3 of that issue so Jane and the Tutor may be older than I had originally thought. I would now say that it was probably released in early to mid-1980.
The movie opens with a producer’s card reading “A Roue Production” but there is no title card. This cuts to the sound of a doorbell (which sounds like a telephone) and a man (Roue editor Alan Bell) walking to open the door. A tall dark-haired woman named Jane enters and the two go into a siting room with very distinctive yellow and black curtains. The man reads a letter that saying that the woman’s parents have agreed that Jane should spend the weekend with the tutor and that he may use whatever methods are necessary to improve her academic performance. He has her take off her white panties and put on standard school uniform underwear while he picks up and tests a cane. The print I have is disrupted by static (I don't think a scene is missing at this point but I'm not sure) and, when the picture returns, Jane is changing into a school uniform.
By the 6-minute mark of the movie she is in her school uniform and he has donned an academic gown. He has her kneel on a stool and lift her skirt. He tells her to lower her panties every time he says either knickers or down he has her piull down her panties and, when she does, he gives her a slap with what look like a ruler (the picture quality leaves a lot to be desired). This continues sequence continues until about the 10-minute mark then he moves to an arm chair and takes her over his knee for an OTK spanking while she recites a simple poem about spanking several times. This takes about 4 minutes.
Next, he has her back over the stool with her skirt up and panties down while he works his way through one of her assignments. He picks up a leather strap and straps her for every mistake he discovers. I didn’t try to count the strokes but he must have given her close to 50 before he tells her to stand, just before the 20-minute mark. He has her sit on the stool and he gives her an assignment to take down and she gets her hand strapped or her bottom smacked for each mistake. When she has her assignment, he sends her off to her room but she comes down a moment later in her nightgown for her final lesson. He bends her over the back of his arm chair and gives her 6 HARD strokes of the cane then he sends her back to is room. Unfortunately, the video quality during this scene has deteriorated so badly that it is almost unwatchable.
“Jane and the Tutor” is obviously an early effort at making a spanking video. There are several awkward edits and the lighting is poor but time has not been kind to this tape and the quality has deteriorated badly. In some places there is nothing left but static. That’s a shame because this movie would be worth watching if you could see all of it. I don’t know where the movie can be purchased. It is one of three early Roue movies that have disappeared from the Roue catalogue and I suspect that may be related to the management issues that disrupted the publication of the magazine in the later part of 1982. It does occasionally appear on the various spanking boards and it is easily recognizable by the distinctive yellow and black curtains in the drawing room. It’s worth a look if you find it but it can be hard to watch.
