About this deal

This effort by photographer-turned-filmmaker George Harrison Marks came relatively late in the cycle, but retains a fond following thanks to its catchy title and a genuinely charming performance by model-turned-actor Pamela Green. So the following 10 films are at least as much illustrations of social and historical trends as they are defining examples of cinematic eroticism in their own right. Throughout the '80s, '90s and ’00s, British auteurs began creating stylish films that used sex as part of the narrative, rather than the overly prescriptive (and slightly disappointing) main course itself. The earliest book in the Private Case is from 1658, Rare Verities : The Cabinet of Venus Unlocked and Her Secrets Laid Open, a collection of sections of Latin authors “never before in English”, but much of the collection is from the 18th century, the era of the beginning of the novel.

Despite languorous afternoons spent playing cricket and punting along the river, shame and danger hang over the couple’s union as oppressively as storm clouds before a downpour.

Good erotica is lovingly detailed, surprising, yearning, playful, weird, carnal, urgent, tender, slow. He briefly enters the scene to adjust her pose for the camera, then, with several takes, captures her body’s movement, with the final scene seeing her reclining in the rushing water fully nude. It is intended for students of eighteenth century culture, queer theory, history of sexuality and book history.A year earlier, sleazy exploitation film Her Private Hell (1968) won the honor of being Britain’s first feature-length adult film, but unlike Deep Throat, it contains no unsimulated sex.
