Was that real?


I was just curious...were all those sex scenes real? It definitely appeared that they were actually performing the acts! So, what's the scoop? Real or not real?

Does it really matters?

reply

yes

Yes the scenes were real

How would you know?


Namaste, and good luck.

reply

Yes, how do u know?

reply

because you can "see" it!!!. Also it is listed in the wikipedias list of movies with non simulated sex scenes. But mainly because you can see it.

reply

Gimme a break. See what? It's not like you saw actual penetration like in a porn flick. They are professional actors. They make it *look* real. Even when you watch the oral sex scene, his hands are placed and the camera is set to where she could actually be wearing a G-string.

justagirl is right. If you're really paying attention and put aside your shock and horror (or adolescent fascination), you will see that absolutely NO penetration is shown. Even the oral sex scene does not show oral penetration. Yes, an erect penis is handled. At no point is genital penetration ever shown. It is only suggested. While this film is graphic and extremely sexual, it's not porn. Even soft core shows more. The camera work is manipulated to full effect and is very clever.

Wikipedia is not a real encyclopedia. Any know-it-all can submit an article - EVEN ME! and no credentials are ever required. There is so much misinormation on it, it's laughable. Be careful where you are getting your facts from!

While an erect penis was handled, we never saw it go into her mouth nor come out of her mouth. The filmmaker could have actually gone ahead and made it real since he decided to forego getting it rated. It puts a film into limbo if it's not rated, and the filmmaker had to decide how hard he wants to push it. But you're right, it's simulated anyway. It's too hard for an R rating so he opted for NR. It's the mood and emotional tension that creates a sexual mystique here, I think.

I think Mr. Balfour reached his condition more by simply having it handled, however more than that may indeed have taken place. Maybe they had a fluffer on the set.

i know this is getting off topic but just fyi wikipedia has the same percent error as all the leading encyclopedias so dont make up that bs about so much misinformation because you are just asuming. Wikipedia if any thing can be more accurate because it can and is moderated by many intelgent people that make sure that the sources are good.

reply

i dont think it was real also, there was an interview where they discussed the 'choreography' but besides the director's wishes, they had free reigns. and the camera angles are just so...

reply

never trust wiki

but I have downloaded the clips and watched them over and over

and the scene when she is giving him a blow job, no evidence she put it in he mouth, but she is jerking him off with the hand, A LOT :P

and the sex u see he erect penis go back and fortunder her when she rides him, but u cant tell if it is in and out or it is just rubbing her on theunderside of the vigine going back and forth

i just know u dont see girls jerking of a guy in normal film :D

reply

It was not real. They did a great job though of making it look real. Kudos to them for that!

reply

Doesn't matter ; it's DAMN sexy! I just wish I couuld get a copy here in Sweden cos I think Eric is sexy as hell.

But unfortunately they don't have it here.

Any advice?

Have you tried Amazon.com?

I have done video editing, and there are MANY movies who have actual penetration.
I did a part time with the task of find those scenes and I found many movies in the R rating who had a penetration, yeah I found many frames where is enough proof for anyone.
A good example was monster ball, Boogie Nights, and others.
So check frame by frame and you will see..
Personally I prefer simulated sex, because should not be real, should be drama not porn.

^Nothing clever about her holding and erect penis .Yes it is porn what else would you call it?.there's nothing clever about that.female pornstars are shown holding real dicks in their movies.Does that not make it porn then either
Anytime you leave nothing to imagination like a porno flick.it is essential porn that your making .Even if its sprinkled in a movie it doesn't take away from the fact of what it is .If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck.Then it is a duck

Implied would mean that .you never actually saw something just that maybe the unzipping as well as the girl kneeling down in front of the guy .without showing anything that includes her taking his dick in her hand is implied.in that scene it left nothing to the imagination which is the purpose of a porn flick.

the technique they used to show sex in this movie was clearly done for Shock value .its not so much the camera manipulation as it is the editing .two good looking people+bad acting+sexual chemistry and a willingness to come close to penetration on camera..You've got yourself a pretty solid softcore flick with a passable plot .

Just read an article that names this movie as well as 8 others where the sex was not simulated.

"because you can "see" it!!!. Also it is listed in the wikipedias list of movies with non simulated sex scenes. But mainly because you can see it."
ok if you say so, but...
1--the wikipedia entry i have here,

"Lie with Me (2005) - While the graphic sex and masturbation scenes in this Canadian film appear to be simulated, footage from an actual hardcore film (with penetration) is briefly visible on a TV screen, and during two sex scenes actress Lauren Lee Smith can be seen fondling the actor's penis before simulating fellatio (the actual act is not shown). Also actress Polly Shannon can be seen handling Eric Balfour's penis before simulating fellatio.

2--you can see clearly that its all simulated they used the tricks that are used in softcore porn movies where the use body positions and camera angles.
a moron could figure this out.

The only unsimulated sex is in the porn film glimpsed on a TV screen.

reply

Yeah...because wikipedia is a really good source.

And no...you can't see it. Becuase it didn't happen.

reply

The only thing real was the brief hand job.

reply

Actually, NO, the sex scenes are not real. Neither Lauren Lee Smith or Eric Balfour do actual sex scenes in movies. They are just great actors.
A film that contains actual sex, by law, must be labeled pornographic.

Probably not. Like soft core flicks, no penetration of any kind was shown. Good simulation, however. We watch this emotionally disconnected woman bloom and blossom as she finds true love and finally achieves real orgasm.

reply

actually they do show penetration, in their first sex scene in his apartment when they're on the floor.

reply

Yikes!! I just can't get over the fact that he showed his tiny pee pee. I used to think he was kinda hot on Six Feet Under..but now after seeing this movie, that changes my opinion. His pee pee was equivalent to the size of a toddler's..for SHAME! Brave man, though. Wonder how much they paid him?!

Don't get me *bleeping* started!

reply

It was only tiny when they were dancing and he was flaccid. When it was erect it looked decent. But maybe it's just me.

agree, when she gets on top him you can get a glimpse of his penis coming in and out.

reply

Actually you can't see a penetration. You can see her bottom get back and forth and his penis underneath. It can be a penetration but it can also just be rubbing.

reply

My personal opinion is no, the scenes are not real. When they first have sex, and she is on top of him, you can see his penis... and it is very obvious (To me of course...) that they are not really having sex.

reply

it was real
