I'm mid 60's baby boomer and we're responsible for free love and almost all the psycho-social-sexual excesses that our culture hasn't got rid of yet. We were spoiled and given everything we wanted and anything more, we just took. The "Lifestyle" of swinging is just a continuation of the old,
lived out by those of us afraid of getting old. Getting old means settling down and some will never take the chance of settling down because to do so means to curb appetites and live within the structures of maturity. Some of us will never be able to be so brave.
I've wet my big toe in the lifestyle and have concluded that the things we're looking for and wonder the most about are the things we still wonder about after the experience. Swinging is just about playing in a bigger sandbox. Yes sex and love can be two separate things but without each other they fail to calm the restlessness within.
So, what about the movie? I loved it! The women were cute, adorable, and totally sexy. The men wore their bravado just like in real life. The dialog, scenes, sets, were perfect. T and A were wonderful. The husband was bound by all his fears and tried to project his inadequacy on his wife. He was the child. This scenario happens all the time in real life.If movies are primarily about entertainment, cut out the crap about real and heavy meaning. Ride the movie like a roller coaster...
And just get your kicks.
