Emmanuelle Deep Dive - Lilith Likes to Watch

Image
Title:  Emmanuelle Year:  1974 Starring:  Sylvia Kristel, Daniel Sarky, Alain Cuny  Director:  Just Jaeckin Synopsis:  An employee at the French Embassy in Bangkok invites his wife to join him – and enjoy the benefits of their open marriage. - via Letterboxd.com Lilith's Notes:  Once more we dive into classics. Buy:  Amazon     "l knew then that a cascade is only beautiful if you can say so to the one you love." I realize it’s kind of arrogant to claim a deep dive into a franchise that has seven parts, not to mention countless unauthorized spin-offs, a video game, a reboot and two novels, while engaging in just the first film, the most recent remake, and listened to a possibly abridged version of one of the two novels. But, realistically, there’s only so many hours in a week and Kage and I aren’t getting any younger. So, while we admittedly dove into the shallower end of the experience, we did ultimately decide that since Emmanuelle is s...

Title: Her Body aka Její tÄ›lo Year:  2023 Starring: Natalia Germani Director: Natálie CísaÅ™ovská Synopsis: A successful athlete, member of the Olympic team, after a vertebra injury and the forced end of her sports career, becomes a successful and well-known porn actress. Based on the real-life story of Olympic diving champion Andrea Absolonová. - via Letterboxd.com Lilith's Notes: This lady gets so wet. Buy: Amazon “Make a splash. Get the most out of life.” Did you know that once upon a time, there was an olympic level diver who broke her back, so she got into porn? Well, you do now! Her Body: A True Porn Story is the true telling of Andrea Absolonová, a member of the Czech high diving team, and adult film actress who went by the stage name Lea De Mae. That’s the most interesting thing about this movie, the true story behind it. This is one of those occasions where I feel this movie needs to be shared with others, simply on the fact that it’s such a unique premise, an aut...

Climax - Lilith Likes to Watch

Image
Title: Climax Year: 2018 Starring:  Sofia Boutella Romain Guillermic Souheila Yacoub Director: Gaspar Noe Synopsis:  When a dance troupe is lured to an empty school, a bowl of drug-laced sangria causes their jubilant rehearsal to descend into a dark and explosive nightmare as they try to survive the night—and find who’s responsible—before it’s too late. - Via Letterboxd.com Lilith's Notes: Our first Gaspar Noe, but it won't be our last. Buy: Amazon "I am so happy. I couldn't be happier." Look around. Look at the state of everything. Yeah. If you wanted to let go and get a little fucked up right now, I don’t think anyone would blame you. Just use responsibly. Now seems as good a time as any to start 2025s viewing experiences with a chaotic clusterfuck of a bang. And what better hedonistic, unhinged explosion is there than Gaspar Noe’s Climax. The film begins with a French dance troupe being interviewed. The footage is on an old TV surrounded by classic psycho-...
