  Anna Neagle stars as the humble orange seller Nell Gwyn who captures the heart of a king in this bawdy and controversial British historical drama. In a 17th century England revelling in its freedom after years of Puritan domination King Charles II (Sir Cedric Hardwicke) promises to restore to the nation ""its old good nature its old good manners and its old good humour"".

He has delivered to these constituencies precisely the kind of video they would want. Doggystyle does not trouble itself with any actual promotional clips or artist interviews. Though Snoop occasionally deigns to wander in front of the camera and mime half-heartedly along to one of his songs, this is essentially a porn film, which is appropriate given that most of what Snoop has recorded in the last few years resembles uncannily the glutinous muzak that usually serves as a soundtrack for such things. It is not without amusement value, wholly inadvertent though this is--the editing of this "Soft" version of Doggystyle, intended to make it saleable in shops which are not patronised exclusively by men in overcoats, occasionally lends the joyless copulations of Snoop's mates a certain comedic appeal. --Andrew Mueller
