I think it is not shown much because many still consider it wrong (sadly) and it
is hard to show without getting an X-rating (i.e. you can show a guy
under the covers maybe but you can't actually show 'it' :), women
can maybe get away with a bit more).
Not sure if I would us ehte term 'good' but:
Angi Dickinson in Dressed to KIll

I'm joining this late so it may have been mentioned already, but one of the
better examples of mutual masturbation, handled (no pun intended) in a
mature manner, would have to be the beautiful film,
"Flirting" (the follow-up to "The Year My Voice Broke").

Be aware, though...there is an R-rated and an X-rated version.
I have seen the X, never seen the R. I checked in a video
rental store's "logbook" once, and as I recall the R-rated
version is about 40 (40!!!) minutes shorter. Has anyone
seen both versions? I am curious as to how badly the R-

Jennifer Jason Leigh does it in Single White Female, but then again

Of course, taking a dump is more normal and more natural than masturbation,
yet I don't hear you complaining about the lack of theatrical exposure.
What you're really saying is, hey, I get off on masturbation scenes
involving straight (rather than porn) actors, and I'd like a listing.
Nothing wrong with that, I just don't think I'd wanna broadcast it over
cyberspace.
Go out and buy a copy of "The Bare Facts Guide" by Craig Hosoda (I think).
This guy catalogs every nude scene in every mainstream film, and I'm sure
there's a subsection on masturbation scenes.

I liked Sliver, saw it last night. I think the bad review
rumors were because the critics were miffed that they didn't
get to see it in time to publish their opinions (I heard it
was not released early for them to preview and critique).
However, the masturbation scene wasn't that exciting, it
wasn't clear whether or not Stone was coming or having a bad

In any case, I think it is a decent whodunnit, it kept us

"Butchered" is as butchered does. The director's cut was not to
Bob Guccione's liking, so he returned to Italy and shot a great deal
of new X-rated footage to insert into what otherwise was a halfway
decent heavy-R-rated biopic of the mad Emperor.
True, the version in video is probably CUT fromt he released version,
but is probably closer to the director's original intent. (I forget
who, he may have quit or been fired and not gotten screen credit.)
I enjoyed watching all the sex, but I have to say it slowed the
story down considerably.

I wouldn't believe that until i've seen it myself (about it being a poor
movie). It's one of these ones where Sharon Stone is that controvertial
now that people start to hate her movie before seeing it. I bet some people
that just read your comment that it is "Supposed to be poor" have gone and
told someone else... and it carries on through to their friends etc etc.. get

Sharon Stone did a four minute masturbation scene in "Sliver". It was pretty

I came in late on the 'what causes homosexuality' thread, but I
to know the answer to what seems to be a more basic topic.
What is the criteria for judging one's own or another's sexuality?
(And don't give me this 'you don't know?' crap neither. I think
it's a valid question.) Is it determined by one's conscious
evaluation of him/herself? If so, what exactly is a closet gay?
Is it determined by who someone is attracted to? If so, what
about the fact that almost everybody at one time or another
fantasizes about sex with both sexes? Is it a simple 'most of
the time' method then? If so, where do bisexuals fit in? In
other words, what's the answer?
Also, on another topic, my roommate a few years back had a game
for the PC made for 2 players of opposite sexes. The players
each entered in a number 1 to 100 and the game shot back an
activity for them to do, depending on their choice of numbers and
how long they'd been playing, etc. Anybody know the name of this
game and where it can be found? (please E-mail me the replies)

Which, by the way, was NOT a deliberate studio ploy to keep critics away
from the film until it was too late. Director Phil Noyce was editing and
re-editing right up to the eleventh hour of release. He does this on almost
every film he works on.

She was in Patriot Games, as the female member of the terrorist group.
"Sliver" was directed by "Patriot Games" director Phil Noyce, so that may
explain her casting. She doesn't appear in the r.a.m. Actress database at
the moment, but if you like I'll dig out the press kit for "Patriot Games"
and give you her bio. From memory, most of the stuff she had done prior to
"Patriot Games" was in England.

The R-rated version of this abysmally bad movie may be 40 minutes
shorter than the full version, but not because of the *explicit*
sex scenes which amount to little more than seven minutes -- one
scene of fellatio and one of intercourse with the woman on top.
Both occur in an orgy sequence in a large boat, in which Caligula
orders senators' wives to prostitute themselves. The hard sex
scenes are included in such a way as to facilitate their easy
removal for 'soft' versions of the film. I saw a 'soft' version in
Paris when it first came out, and the full version shortly afterwords.
In my candid opinion, the seven minutes of hard sex scenes were by
far the best part of this unremarkable farrago.
The 33 other excised minutes may include some of more disgusting
scenes of cruelty -- viz. the bit where the soldier has his penis
tied off so he can't urinate, and is then forced to drink gallons
of wine. The scene concludes with his stomach being sliced open and
the wine gushing forth. Very edifying I'm sure. Personally, I'd
prefer to watch people having sex and enjoying themselves, but then
I'm known for my curious tastes.

Perhaps, but "Sliver" did indeed get trashed by the critics who managed
to get a review out in time. Generally speaking, if you can get several
thousand prints of a film into theaters on Friday, you can show one print
of it to a bunch of critics on Wednesday. I'm highly dubious that Noyce
was cutting it so close to the wire that doing so was impossible. It
wasn't impossible on "Patriot Games", despite serious re-editing of
that film and a hard deadline for its release.
"Sliver" has also gone through serious re-editing, both for ratings purposes
and because preview audiences hated the original ending. (From what I've
heard, "hated" is in no way an overstatement here. They didn't just find
it unsatisfying, or ineffective, they actively hated it.) Despite that,
I sincerely doubt that "Sliver" couldn't have been screened for critics,
had the studio wanted to do so. It's the perfect film *not* to screen
for critics - a film sold on its supposed sexual content, with strong
industry rumors of being a turkey, with a hot star. If the critics
don't kill it at the moment of its release, the studio could expect a
big opening weekend, if nothing more. Getting it reveiwed, even if it
gets good ones, doesn't buy you a lot, since nobody much is going to see
this film because of good reviews. (Arguably, of course, most of those
who are going to see it the first weekend wouldn't read the reviews,
anyway, but that's the sort of chance Hollywood prefers not to take.)

Here's a couple more: James Spader in "SEX, LIES AND VIDEOTAPE"
and: FADE TO BLACK (The movie with the guy from BREAKING AWAY, I
forget his name.... Dennis something). He masturbates to a picture
of Marilyn Monroe while saying 'bitch... bitch... bitch...' over
and over

Fired and threatened to sue if his name appeared on the screen credits
is closer to the mark.
Several of the works of Pedro Almovar ( sp?) have masturbation
sequences; Law of Desire has a male porn film being shot
and one of his later ones has a scene with a windup
diver in a woman's bubble bath.

The fact is, the "buzz" was SO bad that they did everything they could
to avoid having actual reviews precede the film's opening, including
desiging a clip collection that failed to get MPAA approval. (I find
that preposterous ...)
This is a STANDARD studio ploy. No matter what excuse they offer,
if they think press coverage can help them, they will do everything
they can to get it. They spend LOTS of money on this process --
remember, even a $40 million movie will get $40 million of promotion!
Conversely, if they are scared that press coverage will hurt, they
will avoid getting it. Excuses notwithstanding.

We had to have our parents sign a permission slip to watch it.
I think it's a very good historical movie - really true to life about how
demented Caligula was. Of course, I don't think the palace walls were
always filled with peeping lesbians (definately a Bob Guccione touch), but
the whole mood of the film was rather informative.
I've seen the X version; I think the most disturbing scene is when the
guard swings Caligula's daughter by the legs and smashes her against a
wall. Yuck!

Except Phoebe ISN"T his girlfriend in the movie (which is part of the whole
point of this scene). His girlfriend is the girl who was also in Better
Off Dead - the blonde.
But it is a good scene and his expression is great!

Phoebe Cates plays Brad's sister's friend, not his girlfriend. His GF is the
blond/redhead who won't got to The Point with him.

Regardless of the studio's ploys to keep the film away from reviewers, the
fact is the film was NOT finished a week and a half before it was due to
hit US cinemas. UIP, Universal's distributor here in Australia, were told
that they could not have a print yet as the film was still in editing.

I hoped that the complete version would be better. In the case of the
Peckinpah & Leone films, my hopes were fulfilled. With "Caligula" I
detected no improvement. Except, as I say, the seven minutes of hard
sex were not bad. Different director, apparently.

it's still pretty fresh in my mind...could you please go into a little more
