The Opening of Misty Beethoven is an American pornographic comedy film released in 1976. It was produced with a relatively high budget and filmed on elaborate locations in Paris, New York City and Rome with a musical score, and owes much to its director Radley Metzger (directing this film as "Henry Paris"). According to author Toni Bentley, The Opening of Misty Beethoven is considered the "crown jewel" of the Golden Age of Porn (1969–1984).

Plot

In Pigalle, Seymour watches a porn film in a cinema when Misty, a call girl, offers him a handjob. Once she finishes a pre-arranged handjob session with a man dressed as Napoleon, she takes Seymour to her brothel. There, his probing questionnaire irritates her, prompting her to ask him to leave. Meanwhile, Seymour overhears his friend Geraldine's voice. Mid-intercourse in the "cowgirl" position, Geraldine converses with Seymour. Geraldine and Seymour meet up with Misty, who slaps him.
