![]() That’s not the way I had understood this story to be. I’m bummed to learn that the source material has apparently been altered intentionally to include a lesbian romance. Haven’t seen it yet and still look forward to seeing it, even if it turns out that it’s exactly the way it appears. I don’t know if that’s the way this all goes down in Ammonite or not as of this writing, so fully reserve the right to take all this back after seeing the movie. Filmmakers creating gay and lesbian relationships in stories that don’t belong? I’m getting flashbacks of another unnecessary Terminator: Dark Fate being made and retelling Sarah Connor’s story, but with three Sarah Connor’s instead of one. So now we’re going to have two characters that explore a lesbian sexual relationship but this was a forced, shoehorned in relationship by the writer? The real story is that there was no evidence of a same sex relationship? Sigh. Kate Winslet and Saoirse Ronan on the Power and Joy of Filming ‘Ammonite’s’ Gay Sex Scenes ![]() There’s something revolutionary on its own that Ammonite writer-director Francis Lee decided not to make her heterosexual by default, as is society’s instinct. There is no evidence that Mary had a same-sex relationship-or any relationship, for that matter. I’m somewhat disappointed in learning the following: OK, but what does the sex scene mean for the story? Get a reaction out of the viewers, make them horny. Or are they only there to turn on the viewers? That’s not advancing the story, that’s viewer interaction. The sex is a part of the story or else why did they put the scene in there at all? I mean, extended sex scenes in movies - hetero or gay - they should have some kind of plot point, yes/no? Um, that’s like trying to focus on an action movie without talking about the fight scenes or a sci-fi masterpiece without discussing the special effects. It portrays Kate Winslet and Saoirse as somewhat conflicted in how to discuss their new movie Ammonite which is being released this weekend, without focusing predominantly on their sex scene.īut isn’t that the hook for the film? Isn’t that the “I have a special set of skills” Liam Neeson is going to kick a$$ part that draws viewers interest? There is a lot of irony going on in this quoted article below. Some porn don’t even try to disguise this by simply characterizing the types of sexual acts that will be depicted.īack to Ammonite, which appears to be a non-porn story, but is being marketed heavily for the depiction of a same sex scene. ![]() The crossover to porn for me is when the story is not really a story, it’s just there as a framework to show graphic sex. The sex was the story, about as much as possible without it being a porn. In other movies like 365 DNI on Netflix, that movie is just teeming with sex scenes. We didn’t need to watch Bond getting it on with the Bond girl to get the point - two pretty people having sex. With James Bond, there weren’t full on sex scenes, they were kissing and going to the bed or in the bed, and that’s it. Porn aside, I like sex scenes in movies to mean something. Will try to keep it relatively clean, despite the dirty connotations. We haven’t talked much about sex scenes in movies here.
