The Chatterley Affair -Trailer

New from the BBC, "The Chatterley Affair" is a passionate love story set in the context of the most famous obscenity trial in publishing history

Was it a book with literary merit or mere smut? That was the question put before a British jury in 1960 about D.H. Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's Lover. The trial made headlines around the world, especially since the prosecutor quoted liberally from the book's explicit content while making his argument. Emmy® and BAFTA--winning screenwriter Andrew Davies imagines the effect the trial might have had on two jurors, a man and a woman who were emotionally vulnerable, sexually unfulfilled, and strongly attracted to one another.

; Using the logic of this book trial, put all the books of the socially acceptable religions on trial, as they have encouraged suicide-bombers, slavery, paedophilia, serial/spree murder, over-population, and the genocide of humans, animals, plants, and anything else.

Cheers!

was a memorable experience her husband never lived up to it. now thats pressure. jeez if lady's lover was a porn star does an average joe stand a chance. conclusion if you are an average joe your wife will be screwed by a stud.

if only intimacy and passion could help us survive. i was just wondering how that society would have been. would that kind of society have really survived. what would be their concept of family? would it be fair to to introduce your kids to different fathers and mothers every week. or informing them these are your fathers pick one some one is your biological father if it concerns you so much you can have a paternity test done. miss chatterley was banged for a whole week and she concluded it.

Book is actually really average, its just popular because it was the most controversial book in time it was published.
