I again gave the wrong impression, 1. I'm a woman who appreciates Asian films. 2. This film was based on an actual story and the lady in question was considered a feminist idol. Japan pink films rely on exaggerated humor or what was once called in America, 'roughies' in the 60's. When naked people playing volleyball did not sell then, films about 'bad girls' and downfall did make money. That is the reason anyone makes explotation films, cold cash & nothing but; art be damned. Sad, but true.

disturbing movie. for real. but i wonder whatever happened to the lead actors...

This is not a porn movie, the sex appeared because it's an important part of the story and it's real sex exaclty to "build" this intepretation of the audience, but it's not a "X" movie, it's an erotic drama.

@anglinthemtns First of all, there are women who get off on inflicting violence too. I haven't seen this movie yet but from the reviews I understand that such a woman is depicted in this movie, which was based on a true story. And you can care for someone and do it to them rough and aggressive because that is how they like it. There is a difference between BDSM and abuse.

@iolaus rape & violence toward women is everywhere.. if this is how men wish to get off it is pretty sicko in the head- must have some real complex psychological issues deep down & not man enough to face & deal w/them. Any man who can have real affection & care for a woman has the best sex because it not only fulfills kama but also prema. Men who like rough & aggressive sex should have it with each other & men who have sex w/children are not only very insecure about themselves but abnormal!

@iolaus Nudity alone is not regarded as pornography and thus forbidden in Japan. However the japanese censors consider pubic hairs as pornographic. That's the reason why you find mainly shaved girls or even minors without pubic hairs in sexual action in japanese hentai comics and nudity magazines. Btw this was for centuries also true in Europe.

[iolaus]

That's more or less what I was trying -and failing- to say. Is that what we in America call 'Hardcore' pornography that means full frontal nudity & penetration is strictly forbidden by law in Japan, even with the use of optical blurring of the genitals. There is also what is known as pinku eiga or 'pink films' which are more like hard 'R' rated sex films, that often, but not always, deal with rape and violence towards women. Try finding 'Eros In Hell' by Jack Hunter, great book on these films.

@iolaus It's legal, but censored.

The film also was a French/Japanese co-production since the sex scenes were not faked, the producers had to ship the film to Paris to be edited together because if they had done so in Japan the anti-porn laws would have meant that everyone involved, the producers, Director Oshima and his actors would have all done serious jail time. Still to this day, 'hardcore' porn is more or less illegal in Japan, to the best of my knowledge.
