Token nostalgic holiday movie
9 and 1/2 weeks.
I was a minor when I first watched it, got all hot and bothered with
both Mickey Rouke and Kim Basinger. And my young teen soul loved the angsty ending.
Now I see Mickey as the control freak that he is in the movie. There are some beautiful shots in there, well, a little kitschy at times. After all this was done in the 80s, and the soundtrack? That was a walk down memory lane, ok I was stumbling from laughing.
In retrospect, this flick could be the trigger for my sadomasochistic streak. Vanilla sex is fine and dandy, but that fine line between pain and pleasure calls to me. Sometimes I wonder about the pathology of such power relationships, although satisfying sexually, I've never managed to sustain them. I find I have to expend more emotional energy and frankly, mind games grow old.
