SEX/NUDITY 7 - A man pulls a young woman onto his lap, they kiss passionately, the man lifts her up and carries her to a countertop, the young woman pauses and asks the man if his family or his wife will hear them; the man then kisses the young woman passionately, pulls off her underwear (we see her bare upper thigh) and they pant and moan sexually as we see them actively thrusting.
► We see clips of ants crawling over a bare nipple (we do not see the rest of the body the nipple is attached to). A teen girl stares longingly at a young man. A young man quickly takes off his shirt and pants (he is wearing boxer brief-style underwear) then leaps into a pool as a young woman looks at his bare back longingly. We see a young woman wearing a bra and pants as she pulls on a shirt. We see a young woman wearing a bikini and a boy touches the young woman's upper leg. We see a young boy in a bathing suit and his bare back and chest are visible.

► A young man leans in to kiss a young woman in a car and they kiss momentarily until the young woman pulls away; the young woman leans into the young man and they kiss passionately, she climbs onto his lap (we see a teen girl watching them from a distance) and they continue to kiss until the young woman stands up.
► A young woman wraps her arms around a man's neck, she kisses the man's neck and face and they kiss passionately until a sound interrupts them.

► A teen boy rubs a teen girl's upper thigh as the teen girl rests her head on the teen boy's shoulder and they kiss. A young man touches a young woman's arm affectionately.
► A woman watches her husband dance with a young woman; the woman is obviously upset by how close the man and the young woman are dancing and stare at one another longingly.
► During a therapy session, a man crudely tells his female doctor that he had a sexual dream about her, graphically detailing how she had been wearing sexy lingerie and how he had become physically aroused; he then crudely describes how they began to have sex. During a therapy session, a man crudely tells his female doctor that he cannot find a woman who is good at having sex, as well as smart. A man tells his wife that he does not mind that she makes "googly eyes" at her ex-husband at dinner and that he is attracted to a young woman; the wife shouts and adds that she is also attracted to the young woman but to "not embarrass her." A young woman tells a man that she wants to record sounds of "bodies rubbing" and the man asks if she means people having sex; the young woman explains graphically that she does not want people panting and moaning as she graphically pants and moans. A woman tells a young woman that she recognizes her from an art show where the young woman had shown naked photographs of her boyfriend. A woman asks a young woman about an art show where the young woman had taken naked photographs of her boyfriend; the young woman explains that her boyfriend had then sued her because he had felt deceived. A young woman tells a teen girl that a driver had pulled over and asked her if she was a "prostitute." A man crudely tells a teen girl to lift underwear off her floor, she lifts up a slip and the man makes a crude remark about it being "sexy." A man makes a comment to a teen girl about having nice legs. A man makes a series of sexual comments to a teen girl until she reads a poem to the man that implies she thinks he is lecherous; the man becomes upset and calls her, and a young woman that comes to her defense, crude names (please see the Violence/Gore category for more details). A teen boy asks a teen girl how "things" are going between the teen girl and a young man; the teen girl vaguely implies that things are going well (we know that the teen girl and young man do not have a sexual relationship).

CAVEATS
Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.
We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.
Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
