ok but why the sex scenes were so weird
Jeremy Irons consistently making the world’s most catastrophically awful decisions and the whole time has a look on his face like “I can make this work, I can make this work, this definitely won’t fuck up everyone’s lives, I can make this work”
I’m very open to watch Jeremy Irons do whatever he wants 🤡.
Two idiots have disastrous sex at the expense of their loved ones. The woman’s justification (?) is that she has experienced trauma in her youth, the man’s justification (?!) is that he is just a man.
it’s like they always say, “why fuck your boyfriend when you can fuck his dad?”
words to live by.
there’s no way jeremy irons did a porno & then the lion king 2 years later
The Lotus is to me the most intense of all sexual positions, the most intimate, the most elevated symbiosis of entangled bodies and most sensually pleasurable; earlier on in life I had learned that bedroom move from Louis Malle’s Damage. Often, Jeremy Irons and Juliette Binoche engage in trysts of not simple lovemaking but an outpour of long dormant inhibitions – raging, playful, acrobatic carnality – that it makes for the most erotic of all sex play, and erotic I have long helplessly found this film in its hermetic segments. What is carrying on between characters however is so inherently wrong, so steeped in immorality, that it is agonizing and shame-ridden vicariousness for myself all the same. Amongst the English…
Damaged people are dangerous. They know they can survive.
This review contains lots of Lana del Rey and my toxic dilf love. Just a little warning.
JEREMY IRONS. He is so my type, lana del rey vibe, gorgeous and glamorous! I'm normally never so crazy about men, but.. fine, older, dilf, old money, gray haired Jeremy Irons! I take one look at him and Lana starts playing in my head. Jeremy honey, as Lana said "Be my daddy tonight."
I think you understand why I watched this. Otherwise, I'm not interested in the sex adventures of freak rich people. The only good thing about the movie was that Jeremy Irons looks phenomenal. It had a very disturbing plot: A father…
I'd pair it with Dead Ringers for a sweet family-themed double feature.
A 90s erotic drama solely about cucking where Jeremy Irons acts wrong and fucks wronger for 2 hours.
Hope they stretched before those sex scenes. Shit looked pretty injurious.
