The New Life Style is the 1970 U.S. re-edited and re-shot version of the 1967 West German film Heisser Sand Auf Sylt, with new footage directed by Peter Savage and featuring Jake LaMotta and Rocky Graziano. Walter Bergman (Horst Tappert) is a married man who has an affair with a swinging, sex-starved blonde at a North Sea resort. The middle aged Walter ogles the nude sunbathers and eventually leaves the woman after finding her in bed with another man. The technical quality of the U.S.-lensed scenes are somewhat better than that of the original, creating the problem of mismatched footage.
