You know, I actually agree, Chad. Sometimes it doesn't work, of course, but I DO like the noir-esque sort of scene-aversion. Done properly, it can be very poetic and dramatic. Same with sex scenes. Only problem is that sex-scenes nowadays are overly, dare I say, Christian in their nature? There's never any passion, never any energy...a bunch of scenes of slowly rolling bodies, six or seven thrusts, almost always in missionary or with the girl on top, and that's it. YAAAAWN. Fucking BORING. I'm not asking for porn, but Jesus Christ on a T-stick, sex between two people who are in love as much as they are claimed to be in those movies is a LOT more frantic and wild. One position or two won't cut it. Girl I most was in love with, when we first had sex, we didn't care how practical the positions were, we were twisting each other around in knots practically, the bed was in danger of breaking, and it went on for a LONG ass time. Yet in movies with sex scenes, it's always this thing where it's the pairing's first time together....and it looks so G-rated that it's just not even worth throwing into the movie.
Hell. Sometimes I feel it actually DETRACTS from the movie to have a subpar sex scene. Love is a primal emotion and the physical expression of it is equally primal. Passion should be raw, wild, unbridled, given no control, not tame and muted and appealing to "good Christian values" or some bullshit like that.[/rant]
