Mistress Pamela is a 1973 British sex comedy drama film directed by Jim O'Connolly and starring Ann Michelle, Dudley Foster, Anna Quayle and Anthony Sharp.
[1] It was written by O'Connolly loosely based on the 1740 novel Pamela, or Virtue Rewarded by Samuel Richardson.
[2] In the eighteenth century, Pamela, a servant girl in the household of Lord Devenish, must fight off the advances of her young master, a gentleman determined to have Pamela as his mistress.
The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "What the makers clearly had in mind was Carry On Tom Jones.
"[3] Time Out wrote, "Richardson's 18th century classic Pamela clearly dredged up for its bawdy possibilities ... About all the film has in common with the original is a notable lack of humour.
