Quick Answer

What is Confessions from the David Galaxy Affair about?

Confessions from the David Galaxy Affair is a 1979 British comedy film directed by Willy Roe about professional astrologer and lothario David Galaxy, who must clear his name in a robbery and murder case while navigating his amorous escapades.

Programmer's Pick

Only in late-70s Britain could an astrologer’s alibi hinge on his bedroom exploits. Between its parade of minidresses and a protagonist who’s as slippery with the law as he is with the ladies, this is one for connoisseurs of bawdy British farce.

Overview

Professional astrologer and notorious ladies' man David Galaxy, played by Alan Lake, is up to his neck in trouble—both with women and the law. When he finds himself the prime suspect in a five-year-old robbery and murder, Galaxy must scramble to produce an alibi that will convince the authorities of his innocence. Unfortunately, the only credible witness who could vouch for him is less than cooperative. As if legal woes weren’t enough, he’s also challenged to satisfy a woman who claims never to have had an orgasm, leaving him to prove both his innocence and his prowess. This British sex comedy is a romp through the swinging late 1970s, packed with risqué humor and outrageous encounters.
