Hollywood Sex Comedies, 1953-1964
Author: Hal Erickson
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476652589
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
The Hollywood "sex comedy"--a feature-length film in which sex motivates the storyline and the laughs are triggered by sexual situations--came into its own with the 1953 release of the once-controversial The Moon Is Blue. That film received very positive critical and audience response despite being denied a seal of approval from the Production Code Administration and receiving a "Condemned" rating from the Legion of Decency. (These two formidable watchdog agencies would continue to be challenged--and audiences would continue to be convulsed--by the abundance of sex comedies still to come.) The present informal survey focuses on 25 selected examples of the genre, released between 1953 and 1964. Along with such familiar works as The Seven Year Itch, The Tender Trap, Pillow Talk and Kiss Me, Stupid, several lesser-known sex comedies like I Married a Woman, The Tunnel of Love, Happy Anniversary and Period of Adjustment are documented, analyzed and placed in context with their times. Some are masterpieces, others mildly amusing and a few downright awful, but all are fascinating artifacts of a bygone era in popular entertainment.

Pages : 274
Book Description
I'm Blake McQueen, daughter of Miles McQueen: businessman, politician, all around upstanding member of the community. I'm told that name means something, but well, I've pretty much doused it in petrol, set it on fire, and taken a shit on it for good measure. I like to think of myself as a walking middle finger. My name is now synonymous with booze, parties, sex, and drugs. I have to read the newspaper in the morning just to see where I was, possibly who I fucked, and judge my state of inebriation based on how much tit or minge is splashed across page five. Judge me all you like, love me, hate me. I don't give a fuck. Life's a party and you should never stop dancing. But even the sweetest of highs has it's low. There is only so high you can go before you fall, and fall I did, right into the arms of the only man that could possibly stop me from crashing and burning. I've always been untouchable. I've never cared enough to be touchable. Until now. Love is the most destructive drug of all.
