La poliziotta fa carriera, internationally released as Confessions of a Lady Cop, is a 1976 commedia sexy all'italiana directed by Michele Massimo Tarantini. It is an unofficial sequel of Steno's La poliziotta in which sex and nudity become more explicit, [1] and at the same time it is a parody of the poliziottesco film genre. [2] The film had two sequels, all starred by Edwige Fenech and directed by Tarantini, A Policewoman on the Porno Squad (La poliziotta della squadra del buon costume, 1979), and A Policewoman in New York (La poliziotta a New York, 1981).
