Review of Better Than Chocolate (1999) by Emma-Leigh J — 23 Jun 2009
The painting scene is unbelievable sensual. It as beautiul and delicate and intimate as a moment between two people could be. As much sex as there is in this film that scene is really the one to watch.
The parts between Frances and Judy are just a perfect image of the tender first steps of insecure love and attraction. It made me all squiffy to see them to start with. Frances is probably the cutest thing on the planet... I could put her in a pouch and carry her with me everday for luck.
The scene with Lila discovering the sex toys is an absolute classic. The shot of her 'ooh.. surprised' face with the chocolate still in her mouth made me lul. Although I am pretty sure there is something fairly distasteful about using somebody else's vibrator (no matter how amusing the scene was).
It's a lovely little film which actually has a really thought provoking ending.
