Although the reportedly unchoreographed scenes intentionally shocked the film world, you can easily access Love today on Netflix. The sex in Gaspar Noe’s 2015 3D release doesn’t just look shockingly real-it is all totally real. The film follows the main character (Karl Glusman) as he recounts the dissolution of his relationship through fragmented flashbacks.
Spoiler: This movie has, like, a ton of very realistic sex scenes, but they are also very sad. And it’s just as realistic today as it was back then. It was one of the first mainstream films that depicted a man going down on a woman-a major pioneering move at the time. You’d think that sex scenes in older films (this was was released in 1973!) would be either too heavily censored or too blatantly pornographic, but the iconic sex scene in Don’t Look Now (between Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie) changed the movie sex game forever. But it’s the sex scenes between Gordon-Levitt and Julianne Moore, who plays an older woman who teaches Jon about real intimacy, that make the film truly something. Don Jon features ~a lot~ of sex-mostly little blips of, well, graphic pornography. No one asked to see an angry, porn-addicted Joseph Gordon-Levitt after swooning over him in 500 Days of Summer, but we got one anyway. Ellen Page and Michael Cera’s chair scene definitely isn’t the hottest sex scene in cinematic history-but it definitely keeps it real when it comes to the dangers of skipping a condom. But Seydoux told the Daily Beast in 2013 that while most of the snotty, tearful, and even violent scenes in the film were real, the sex scenes (shot over a grueling 10 days) featured "fake pussies that were molds of our real pussies."ĭon't act like you don't know which one: Michael Cera’s frail bod perched on a La-Z-Boy, the explicit orange Tic-Tac product placement, "it started with a chair." The sex in Juno is, for so many, one of the most formative sex scenes, if not also a cautionary tale. Some critics were wary of the film’s borderline pornographic, unusually long sex scenes-it definitely looks like Léa Seydoux and Adèle Exarchopoulos are having sex for real. Though it comes hand-in-hand with heartbreaking drama, Blue is the Warmest Color also includes some of the sexiest, most honest depictions of lesbian sex.
