Members RockHardNYC Posted June 21, 2022 Members Posted June 21, 2022 Don't be put off by the awful title of this film. This is one of the best movies about sex workers to come in a long while. Emma Thompson and Daryl McCormack are brilliant actors with oodles of chemistry. The script by Katy Brand is superb. Sophie Hyde's direction is what gets movies awarded. It's a simple movie that's deep and complex. There is something here for every adult to chomp on, especially those among us who struggle to find sexual happiness and fulfillment. Sadly, it's only available on Hulu at the moment. If and when you get a chance to see it, run. It's fabulous. And, yes, Daryl McCormack is quite delicious naked. unicorn and xpaulo 1 1 Quote
Members Riobard Posted June 21, 2022 Members Posted June 21, 2022 It’s on Amazon Prime, in Canada anyway, included in the annual subscription. I just downloaded it. I don’t think we get Hulu up here but certain Hulu productions land in Prime or sometimes our Crave channels, which seem conjoined to HBO and Starz. I’ll never sort it out. But if I want to search a production up here I use an app called JustWatch; it seems to automatically outline production access for Canada specifically. Quote
Members Riobard Posted June 23, 2022 Members Posted June 23, 2022 Oh I really liked this film, and could relate to some of it experientially, obviously on the ‘nancy’ side of things and in terms of navigating boundaries, not really client repression. Can’t say much more without plot-spoiling. I must catch up with Peaky Blinders where DM is listed in the cast of Seasons 5 & 6. I think I left off at the end of 2 or 3, will have to look at the episode synopses to determine where to jump back in. Quote
Members unicorn Posted July 10, 2022 Members Posted July 10, 2022 The lead, Daryl McCormack, is going to get some jizz out of me tonight... Quote
Members unicorn Posted July 10, 2022 Members Posted July 10, 2022 Am I the only one who thinks Emma Thompson looks like Helen Mirren? Quote

Yes I did by the way, immediately when it debuted. That was a good series. I pretty much keep up with most well reviewed offerings on Apple, Netflix, Prime, and Disney, even CBC Gem for Harlots and Great British Baking. Have yet to return to finish later Peaky Blinders seasons, though. He is starring with Ruth Wilson in the series The Woman in the Wall but I am not about to subscribe to Paramount, yet anyway. Maybe when there is a bigger payload to make it worth it. Quote

And then when I saw Leo Grande some months later, I was like, OMG, OMG, that's that guy... and he's naked... it was like Christmas morning and Halloween combined in terms of excitement. Quote
