A few light primal encounter sex scenes. A couple of light after the deed scenes, some lite lurid talk from Douglas that would be yawned over by even TBS censors.

The film is centered around the male sex drive, but is pretty much written for a PG audience.

laugh your @ss off because I think you can ASSUME an answer from what I said. I didn't say they are divorced and re kindle their love, i said THEY ARE DIVORCED.

the truth is we can't all be stars, but I'll be god damned if I'll settle for bronze....

"No, you didn't. You said "Their divorced" which is an incomplete sentence and doesn't address the question."

Well if you didn't understand my meaning by that error then.. idk what to say.

Plus I think it's pretty weird that you want to know whether they do anything or not, turns you on to see michael douglas and susan sarandon making out?

Maybe I'm off base here, but I think a guy in his 50's trying to (and succeeding) sleep with his high-school aged step-daughter, and the process of persuading her to do so, is pretty sexual. Sure, there was no actual nudity, but here character was 17/18, and the implication of what happened was pretty strong and disturbing.

What difference does it make? People make way too big of a deal out of sex. It happens. Get over it.

We'll see whose the filthiest person alive! We'll just see!

Regarding Connie_n_Raymond_Marble's July 7th, 2010 "[Sex] happens. Get over it" comment: If only it were that simple. At least in the present-day world, it almost never is. I grew up in the sixties and seventies, when many people believed sex could be demystified, destigmatized, casualized; now, the world has largely turned against that way of thinking.

Maybe the pendulum will swing back the other way some day. Or maybe it won't.

Clearly you didn't see the movie.

>>a guy in his 50's
Nope, 60.

>>trying to sleep
Nope, it's a mutual thing.

>>high-school
Nope, she's graduated, matriculating university.

>>step-daughter
Nope, recent girlfriend's daughter.

>>the process of persuading her to do so, is pretty sexual
Nope, it's just conversation at a bar.

>>but here character was 17/18
Nope, not 17/18. 18.

>>the implication of what happened was pretty strong and disturbing
Nope, nothing disturbing about 2 adults having consensual intercourse. They don't even show anything in this scene, other then kissing.

>>Maybe I'm off base here
You got one thing right.
