Forbidden footage

Ten years ago, Madonna gave up the image of a sex diva and starred in the film "Evita" about the virtuous wife of the President of Argentina. But I and my friend Anya (two teenagers, barely mature) did not know anything about this change: we had just discovered a different Madonna for ourselves. Naked, white-skinned, with bright lipstick lips, legs apart, with playful fingers … The fact is that we found Anya's dad's secret porn archive and during the day, while everyone was at work, we got involved in adult cinema.

First there was surprise and shyness, then - satiety, disappointment, shame. We still did not know how to properly treat people who rub their genitals on the screen. And even more so they did not know how to relate to themselves, this "disgusting" beholder. Teenage morality could not stand the attack of naked bodies. The parental example - to hide the shame away - suggested that this was an obscene and unenviable business.

Adults have two main arguments against category X films. The first is classic: pornography corrupts children. The second one is hysterical: how does HE (husband, gentleman) dare to watch THIS (porn films), if I am so sexy and liberated with him! The first argument concerns not us, but law enforcement agencies, and claims against them. And the second one is easy to break with one single phrase: remember the whole history of mankind. For thousands of years, art has constantly turned to the theme of eroticism: from full-breasted figurines to masterpieces of photography. And this is a manifestation of a simple human need: to get excited, to enjoy, to continue the race.

Once in the town of Pushkin (formerly Tsarskoe Selo) I went to an exhibition with the innocent name "Life and Leisure of the Noblemen of the 19th Century". In three bright rooms - ivory chess, gold embroidery, hand-painted cards, scimitars, cherry-tree pipes. And in the fourth - the handwritten "Kamasutra" with naked girls, de Sade's books, statuettes of nymphs kissing each other in the most intimate places. Some things were elegant, tasteful, others - like a shepherdess giving a blowjob to a donkey - on the verge of a foul. But they all spoke eloquently about the fact that even the quivering young ladies in crinolines and gentlemen in tailcoats did not live with only sighs under the moon.

At the end of the 19th century, The Kiss of Mary Irwin and John Rice was considered the most obscene film - just innocent lip movements. This is a word about the relativity of morality. Now the standards are completely different: intercourse between adults and in big movies is not uncommon. But pornography itself is a special phenomenon. For some it is just satisfaction of lust, for others it is a way to make money easily. But in fact, this is just a medicine: for those who know little about sex, for those who doubt themselves, for the timid and notorious - on the one hand. On the other hand, for those who want to live and love, who want to learn new things and diversify their bedding adventures.

Explicit pornography without beauty and a plot is not art, but it also has a right to exist. Watching it is sometimes necessary for therapeutic purposes. Only dosed, little by little, otherwise the taste of piquancy will turn into a stench of satiety.

It is very important to define a framework for yourself. Not in order to curb and limit yourself in something, but in order to leave room for imagination. People who watch porn too much become lazy and whimsical, and here they are not far from perversion.

In order not to get confused in the world of porn opportunities, films with naked people can be divided into three categories: erotica, pornography, and films about porn. Here are the most iconic ones.

Soft

"Empire of the Senses", 1976, directed by Nagisa Oshima. The maid at Sada's visiting house and her master Kishitso loved each other too much. To prevent the routine from killing the senses, Sada took it upon herself. Having decided on her lover, the beauty walked the streets of Tokyo for four days with a severed penis in her hand and beamed with happiness. The young lady was arrested, acquitted, released. It was in fact in 1936, and forty years later director Oshima made a shocking film with erotic motives dear to the Japanese heart: being bound and suffocated during sex. In Japan, the film was released in a shortened version, and in America and Europe it was banned altogether.

"The Last Tango in Paris", 1972, directed by Bernardo Bertolucci. He is preoccupied with his belly, and she, in his opinion, in ten years will be able to play football with her bust. The 20-year difference between an American and a Parisian doesn't matter. Bertolucci made the first serious film not about love, but about sex: no names, addresses and everyday conversations. For three days, people who are hungry for frictions have fun in a huge empty apartment and chat about general topics: about family - for anal sex, about religion - during masturbation, about ugliness of the body - in the bathroom in front of the mirror.

They say that after the first screening of the film, sales of butter rose sharply: it is this butter that the heroes use as a lubricant.

Nine and a Half Weeks, 1985, directed by Adrian Lane. The very Lane who directed The Red Shoe Diaries (an erotic series about gentle gestures) built this masterpiece in spite of everything. Contrary to Kim Bessinger, who was sick of unclean and rude Mickey Rourke. Contrary to the displeasure of the operators, whose heads were splitting from the stage smoke. But it turned out aesthetically pleasing: bodies where necessary - glare, where necessary - cast shadows. And the sufferer Kim after the release of the movie was awarded the title of Miss Erotica.

Hard

Deep Throat, 1972, directed by Gerard Damiano. Individual body parts have never been so popular among the masses! Gogol's "Nose" was read by half of the Russians in the school curriculum, and the film "Deep Throat" about the adventures of the mouth of young Linda Lovelace was watched by half of the planet. It turns out that a special breathing system is needed not only for athletes and women in labor, but also for ordinary young ladies who want to please their beloved.

By the way, "Throat", filmed in 1972, delighted American housewives. A blowjob movie was even released.

Latex / Shock, 1995/96, directed by Michael Ninn. It was not in vain that this dilogy received "Pornoscar" - the highest award in the field of frivolous cinema. The director, a child of the slums of New York, swung Hollywood and created a world of technocratic illusions. The guides to it are pretty angels with innocent little faces. In the jumble of computer graphics, special effects and expensive decorations, the causal places of the actors look even more advantageous. From ordinary porn, the avant-garde porn, which can be studied in universities, has turned out.

"Schoolgirl 1, 2, 3", 2001, directed by Sergei Pryanishnikov. Especially for the first part of the film, they got hold of Soviet school dresses and white aprons, they tied bows to the girls, braided braids, twisted them with bagels. And the shooting itself was staged in a real St. Petersburg school. That is why the movie caused such a scandal among decent citizens: they wanted to put Pryanishnikov on trial for Schoolgirls. By the way, all the actresses, despite their thin bodies and small breasts, have reached the age of eighteen. And the article about pornography in our Constitution is intricate, so the director got off the water and, in the wake of success, rolled two more parts of the movie for pedophiles.

Neutral

The People Against Larry Flynt, 1996, directed by Milos Forman. Flint is the giant of the American sex industry, the owner of the controversial Hustler magazine, schemer, libertine and hustler. The life story of a porn careerist was easily transformed into a script: there are all the popular stories, from court hearings to bullet wounds. For the role of the wife of Larry Flynt, an experienced libertine, they invited a real girl "with a past" - Courtney Love. And they did not lose: Cobain's esque wife played almost herself very inspired. The film is a fable with morality: by the end, Flint was paralyzed, and his wife drowned in the pool.

Boogie Nights, 1997, directed by Paul Thomas Anderson. The dull-witted but energetic young man Eddie dreams of a sweet life. Having met the director of adult films, who excitedly talked about beautiful and sensual cinema, Eddie throws himself into porn with his head. From now on, he demands to call him Big Dick. The guy was not lying: the subject of his pride is indeed great, and you can use it for its intended purpose in an underground studio. Further standard: fame, disco, sparkles, cocaine. The age of the empty-headed porn actor is short-lived: more drugs, less filming, and now he's on the street.
