| "Scenes of a Sexual Nature"
Sex and Love, Love and Sex Amos Lassen Some seek sex and love while others need it. Some avoid it while others pay for it. It is, nevertheless, an integral part of our lives. Seven couples are investigated in this film as "Scenes of a Sexual Nature" looks at the way we live. It's a simple plot--people who have fallen in love, are in love, or need to be in love happen to all be on Hampstead Heath one afternoon. "Scenes of a Sexual Nature" is touching, funny and entertaining. It is also intelligent and subtle with wonderful acting and excellent cinematography. Not a lot happens in the film and therefore the pace is slow but not tedious. It examines the different kids of relationships with a sense of tenderness, wit and intelligence. What is most interesting is the way it looks at the small things in relationships and it is these that give meaning. Relationships may succeed or fail because of the small things. Big issues can be worked at, while the small things either or accepted or fester. The film is beautifully made and it is original, simple and easy to view. I found it to be thought provoking as it sums up the desires, hatreds, beliefs and knowledge of many of us. It is an endearing film because of its simplicity and makes us really believe that we are part of the lives of the people on the screen, if only for a short time. It is about people and this is what it concentrates on. The movie is like a book of short stories and as we can flesh out characters in them, so can we in the film. There are many actors in the film but the star is Hampstead Heath. It is a series of snapshots of London all taken at the heath, a place known for sexual adventure. For the gay population, the gay couple speaks a great deal of the issues of the day and does not hold back. As they talk about their life together, we get a look at the idea of what monogamy is to them and the issue of adoption is also raised. What happens between the two men reinforces the stereotype that gay men are promiscuous if the opportunity presents itself. Even if the reinforcement of this stereotype is abhorrent to many of us, this is a film that should be seen. |
