#THE AFFAIR OF THE NECKLACE SCREENIT MOVIE#

Then it’s off to have honeymoon sex in the frigid Scottish forrest. In the first scene, Melliam Giblace runs off with his childhood sweetheart and, being a good Catholic boy, marries her in a secret ceremony in the woods, presided over by a hipster priest. Setting aside the shitty history, the shitty characters, the shitty costumes, and shitty Mel Gibson, all of which we discuss on the (very drunken) podcast coming up tomorrow (we tease!), the real insult-to-injury here were the two brief “sex” scenes in the three-hour long film. It being Snark Week, and all, it just seemed like the time was right… We’ve talked about some of the hottest sex on screen before, but we’ve never discussed the lamest sex on screen. Instead of seeing some hot action, you get a couple of limp thrusts and then camera pans to curtains. That’s why it’s especially infuriating when you’re introduced to a couple of sexy characters in a flick and you wanna see some action, but the filmmakers get the filmic equivalent of performance anxiety.

#THE AFFAIR OF THE NECKLACE SCREENIT MOVIE#

We have discussed it at length in numerous podcasts (see: basically all of the Season 2 Outlander recaps) and so we like to think of ourselves as connoisseurs on the topic of movie sexytimes. We here at Frock Flicks are not ones to shy away from sex on screen.

Considering how we’ve been able to piss someone off somewhere over something as innocuous as a spelling error, we’re sure this post about sex is going to rile up some readers, but what the hell. We cannot anticipate whether or not you are going to be horrifically offended by a frank discussion of sex, so it’s up to you, dear reader, to politely avert your eyes if such topics are too distasteful. Think of this like supporting public broadcasting, but you get more swearing and no tax deductions!ĭisclaimer: Frock Flicks assumes you are at least 18 years of age and/or not squeamish about discussing sex (or lack thereof).
