Triple Dare (Teenage Taboo Erotica)

Product Information

Catch the full interview with Ensler tomorrow at 7 pm on CBC Television, and enjoy a squirm-inducing trip down memory lane below. The film isn’t as explicit as some others on the list, and according to all involved, the anal sex is simulated. But that doesn’t mean feelings weren’t hurt: Schneider felt “raped,” Brando felt “violated” and both disengaged from their director for years. Still considered the most sexually explicit mainstream movie ever to hit the UK, Michael Winterbottom’s romance interlaces live musical performances (by bands like Primal Scream and the Von Bondies) with the bedroom romps of an adventurous couple that clearly loves going to concerts.

After getting into a serious car accident, a TV director discovers an underground sub-culture of scarred, omnisexual car-crash victims who use car accidents and the raw sexual energy they produce to try to rejuvenate his sex life with his wife. Three handicapped losers who form a band ask famous writer Dries to be their drummer. He joins the band and starts manipulating them. Marc, a traveling entertainer, is on his way home for Christmas when his van breaks down in the middle of a jerkwater town with some strange inhabitants. With her quaint suburban existence on the slow road to ruin, Sarah mutilates herself in the bathroom mirror while her husband sits downstairs watching TV. It's 100 percent real—everything from fellatio and masturbation to full-on penetration. Breillat has since gone on to further explore sex in a sensitive way (including teenage sex in 2001’s Fat Girl), but never quite this explicitly.Nicolas Roeg’s bizarre psychothriller takes a break from its mysterious Venice chase scenes to showcase a tender and unusually hot sex scene between grieving parents Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie. On Wednesday, July 24, Eve Ensler, the writer and activist who created 'The Vagina Monologues' and 'V-Day', is in the red chair. After heated public speculation that a prosthetic might have been used, Gallo claimed otherwise and Sevigny, no prude when it comes to taking risks for her art, has stood by her man. Pretty conclusively, this low-budget film is supplying real sex.

Watching these vintage sex education movies, it would be easy to feel a little smug. Most of them are badly acted, strangely staged, and full of outdated language. This is the second part of a documentary about menstruation from the 1950s, and it's well worth watching for the pipe-smoking, fight-watching '50s dad (he shows up around the 0:30 mark) and the chart of what kinds of things you can and should do while menstruating (that starts around 5:38). Hair washing? Sure! Square dancing? Maybe not. It’s been rumored that Warren Beatty, after seeing then-girlfriend Christie getting cunnilingus from her costar, demanded that the scene be cut. But he didn’t win that fight, and Sutherland still insists that everything was entirely faked. He would know.It may be a little dated, but one of the most interesting aspects of this film (a sequel of sorts to 'Boy to Man', another educational film released three years earlier) is hearing young women talk informally about their lives. Styles may change, but people are still people. This is a post-war instructional film on menstruation that mainly focuses on teaching girls about how to use sanitary pads, but also gets into some odd advice: don't get your feet wet while you have your period. Make sure not to catch a chill. And look around for a nice hot drink if you're feeling out of sorts. Two women, a chef and an anorexic writer, are neighbors in an apartment building. The chef (301) tries to entice her neighbor to eat with fabulous meals. The writer (302) refuses to eat, ... See full summary»
