This ended up being a much deeper discussion than intended, but it is one worth listening to. Sexploitation cinema can mean selling sex for a number of reasons, and in my talk with Jason from Binge Movies, we run the gamut in terms of three of those reasons. Listen to us discuss the state of film criticism before diving into “Beyond the Valley of the Dolls”, “Emmanuelle” and “The Blue Lagoon”, and the sometimes-problematic ways they exploit our reasons for wanting sex on screen.
The closing music for this episode is my composition, “Passionate Illusions II”, off of my 2013 album,“Storytelling”.
