After Life (1998)
10/10
This movie definitely gets you thinking about where you've been...
13 March 2005
Warning: Spoilers
So you're dead, and what happens next? Where/how do you spend the rest of eternity? Now, one of my friends tells me that this is a love story...hanging on to the one you love forever and not letting go! I had to think about that one. I saw the movie for what was most obviously presented...what is your most precious memory in this lifetime. This film made me ponder the entire night...I actually reviewed my life up until that point in time. Poignant? You bet! This film will set you thinking about the human experience. I purchased this film for the library I work in. I recommend it highly. Very artistic, the setting, the characters...so real. Definitely a 10 in my book.

Emmanuelle (1974)
8/10
A pleasant touch of sensuality in this film that so many of the modern day films lack.

Emmanuelle was the first adult film I ever viewed and it delighted me. It was erotic, but it had the added element of sensuality. I believe the element of sensuality is what made it so good.... For a woman, sensuality is an important factor. The fact that Emmanuelle wasn't hardcore, nor was it nasty made for better viewing. Nor was it harsh or ugly as many porn films tend to be. Too many of the films made today lack sensuality, they are cold and obviously put on. Although,I found the story was a bit odd, it was exotic. Exotic in the setting, exotic with it's use of dim lighting. Sylvia Kristel was beautiful and natural in this film. In the world of erotica, it's definitely a classic and worth seeing.
