This movie is not new in the sense that it was out in France nearly a couple of years ago but it is definitely something of an event for a place like Singapore. It surely was rated 21 so the audiences should have known but I believe it is difficult for many Singaporeans to bear some of the frontal nudity that was on display in this otherwise excellent rendition of the Lady Chatterley book. The way Pascale ferran has succeeded in filming all the sexual and love emotions that slowly build up in a relationship is stunning. You could nearly feel all the sexual tension surrounding us. It was definitely very far from the usual American blockbusters the theatre goers are used to in this city state and I believe some of the few people who left before the end did so not really because they felt offended by the sexual content but more because of the art house filming technics bare of any hollywood special effects.
