Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?

Hulkeasexo it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.

Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Leofwine_draca Trust the French to make thoughtful, explicit, ground-breaking cinema. SEXUAL CHRONICLES OF A FRENCH FAMILY is, as the title would suggest, a comic drama about the sex lives of three generations of a close-knit French family, and the various mini-dramas that arise from each. The controversial thing about it is that the sex scenes - and there are plenty of them - are real.In fact, the sex is presented in such an ordinary, matter of fact way, that this is hardly pornographic. It's almost like a documentary in places. The actors, who have no inhibitions whatsoever, happen to be very realistic in their various parts and the way their different lives intertwine is well achieved. Watch out for THE RETURNED's Pierre Perrier, who has a last scene cameo.

p-olstad Warning: This review includes spoilers! I saw the uncut version. From a straight male point of view there were indeed some scenes with lovely nude ladies who may even have been genuinely aroused by what they were participating in. But! There was a lot of emphasis on male sexuality, by comparison little emphasis on female sexuality. There was a lot of explicit male nudity (genitals), but no explicit female nudity (apart from a short dark scene at the beginning). This was extremely unbalanced. If they want to include scenes like that they should give equal attention to both sexes. Typically they didn't. In the end one male character came out of the closet. But in fact, the whole film had done that already.

thucy1 What is interesting is the description of the sexual life of a whole french family living nowadays : from the young teenager who makes love for the first time with her girlfriend, to his grandfather who lost his wife and makes love with a young prostitute.I found the description rather credible and realistic, all the actors are good.I saw the uncensored version which is quite less explicit than many other mainstream movies with explicit sex scenes (like "9 songs" for instance). The DVD issue is more explicit, but most of the versions shown in movie theatre are censored (and rated for a public above 12 in France).the sex scenes are relevant, they are linked to the story and they are neither gratuitous nor vulgar, I think.

Jaquelin pert Sex a basic human necessity and as an adult one must not refrain from discussing it it may not seem appropriate at first but it can be done if one takes initiative. humans are sexual beings and after attaining sexual maturity are bound to have sex and enjoy the act of making love.Its really very hard to digest the fact that our family members and relatives have sex -oh YES lets admit it !!! Our parents,uncles aunts, brothers sisters, grand parents(O yeah old people like it too) get intimate between sheets behind closed doors.This movie deals with such subjects which focuses on the sex life of a family basically the siblings of a family.This movie is beautifully done and the chemistry between the siblings , parents and lovers just seems too realistic. Nudity is shown wherever its necessary. A movie to be watched with broad minded people who admit all human beings are sexual animals.The hand held camera work is very elegant and has managed to capture details such as the facial expressions with panache. I enjoyed this movie with my friends and cousins.Hope you enjoy it too......
