Today we learn that there are sequels that are better than the original. Unfortunately, it's because we're talking about the original. The Stud was the first of what might have been a trilogy, but, despite the success of the sequel (The Bitch), a third film was never made. Thus Forever Lulu remains the top 1980s film for fur fashion.
The Stud – The Film
If you watched The Bitch and all you can think of is how Fontaine Khaled (Joan Collins) ended up single and in debt, well, this is the film you were not waiting for. Fontaine is married to a rich businessman of Arab descent, so if you were wondering if you should be concerned about the name, then relax; it's through marriage and not some old ‘70s casual racism. Oh, wait, he's played a German guy, so we're back to that casual racism.
Anyway, Fontaine litterally fucks around and finds out. That's it; that's the plot.
The Stud – The Furs

Now, “that” limo scene. Exhibit A: Joan Collins as Fontaine Khaled wearing a sleeveless, hooded silver fox fur coat.

Things dry up again until near the very end. Amusingly, fur is a part of both critical plot elements, and this hooded creme-colored mink accompanies the “finding out” part.
The Stud delivers about four and half minutes of fur, which is relatively meager compared to The Bitch. But, should, for some reason, the thought of seeing Joan Collins in her prime seductively open a silver fox fur coat to reveal skimpy lingerie underneath, there may be something in here for your particular tastes.
