IT has not hit the shelves of the video shops as yet, but a soon-to-be-released steamy Christmas blue movie entitled “Bankers in Action” has already claimed its first casualty.

Reports to TnT Mirror are that one of four young bankers who innocently became stars in the local “blues”, secretly filmed at a Maracas hotel situated in one of TnT’s more popular bathing spots, is now under a suicide watch.

According to sources, the 22-year-old Port of Spain Royal Bank of TnT (RBTT) employee reportedly went into deep depression after being told by a close friend that she had been video-taped while in the throes of passion with a man who she had been dating for some time.
Reports are that the two South cavaliers seduced the young bankers and made them believe they were their lovers.

They often made love to them.

Sources told Mirror that a recreation room in the hotel had been converted into a makeshift bedroom and the filming took place there, since there were hidden cameras.

“She’s taking it on really bad,” one of the friends of the RBTT employee told Mirror.

“From the moment we told her what we saw, she said she will kill herself because her parents will never forgive her.”

Since word began spreading that she was “starring” in a blue movie, the young woman’s time keeping at work has reportedly become a problem of sorts.

Expressing his disgust at what he saw, the friend of the RBTT girl, a young man, told Mirror he was angry that these two men who played their way into the lives of these unsuspecting young women had duped them.

“What’s even worse in this situation is these young girls didn’t even know they were being filmed in the hotel; they thought they were just making love to their boyfriends,” he revealed.

A teenaged schoolgirl attending a senior secondary is said to be among the six girls featured in theblue movie.

Of the four other “actresses”, three said to be in their early 20s were identified as employees of Scotia bank and FCB, while the other, an unidentified pretty “Spanish-looking girl”, is said to be from Woodbrook.

At least one of the girls hails from Central Trinidad and another comes from the Barrackpore/Penal area.

Two were described as being of East Indian descent, two or three were said to be Douglas and one of African descent.

“I saw it myself and I get horrors with what I saw,” the source told Mirror.

I real sorry for them girls and the truth is that they really performed because at least the bank girls really thought they were with their boyfriends.

“But those fellows really played them.

“And what is bad about the whole thing, is that you are only seeing the faces of these young women and not the men.”

The two men (names called) in the blue movie who produced and also starred in it come from the Gasparillo area (exact address given).

They both drive hot rods (model, colour and registration number given).

Mirror was further informed that one of the men involved may have full access to the place.

Equipment for filming was flown in from abroad.

“In fact, one of the men runs his own company and proudly displays its name,” Mirror was told.

“Another has had several run-ins with the law and is employed with an oil company in South.”

Mirror was told that while the bank girls were unaware that what it was not just lovemaking to their boyfriends, the others were informed they were making a blue movie.

“It was supposed to be for foreign only; the girls in the know didn’t realise it was to be released locally also, causing so much embarrassment to all of them.”

A well-known “blue movie king” from San Fernando has been appointed the main distributor.

The original will be retailed at $5,000.

It’s expected to hit the video shops one week before Christmas.
