Language of Love
7 October 2007
The mother of all sex education films! This sparked scandal and a huge demonstration in London (led by Cliff Richard) on its release because it includes scenes of actual-sexual-intercourse, but there's also a lot of 'sexologists' talking, smoking and drinking coffee - and music by Bjorn and Benny, just before they started Abba. Language of Love is also the film Travis Bickle thought would be a good first-date movie in Taxi Driver.

Seasons
Swedish Erotica
Reinforcing with vigour and verve those Swedish stereotypes of skinny dipping and saucy sex ed with a season of Scandy nakedness with a generous splatter of sadism.
