Review of In the Realm of the Senses (1976) by Gavin T — 11 Jun 2009
This was no.28 in Channel 4's "100 Greatest Sexy Moments" list. Sex, yep, lots of it and not faked as well. Porn, hmmm probably not. Art, I guess so.
Any good? Not really. It's quite dull to be honest, the sex is not erotic (hence, it's not really porn) and you don't really develop any understanding of the motives of the characters in it which therefore makes it bad 'art'.
Mind you, can understand why it's such a notorious film now! There is one scene that is rather disturbing even it's edited UK form.
