Review of Secretary (2002) by Tara S — 18 Jun 2010
Holy heck. Never has a movie with so little actual sex been so erotic. Maggie Gyllenhaal is perfect in her first starring role. She infuses Lee with a fragile strength - strength that, most people don't realize, needs to exist in a true Dominant/submissive relationship. It takes much power and control on the submissive's part to fully submit, as shown in the climax, which leads to a blissfully romantic denouement.
For some reason, I don't find James Spader attractive. I think it's because he looks like Mayor Adam West from "Family Guy.".
