Interviews about sex

Date of Review:  Mar 9, 2001
The Bottom Line: Explore the lives of four individuals who all view sex in different ways while becoming involved in lies to achieve what they want.
Review: While checking the listings of what was on television last evening I came across Sex, Lies and Videotape on the Sundance channel. This was written and directed by newcomer Steven Soderbergh in 1989 and surprisingly the first time I have viewed...

Sex, Lies & Videotape - What do you imply?

Date of Review:  Nov 17, 2000
Review: Written and directed by first timer Steven Soderbergh, this relatively low budget flick actually received quite a bit of acclaim. Nominated for Best Director at the Academy Awards, it lost to Stones' Born on the 4th of July, but won Best Picture and...

sex, lies, and videotape: (and the results of being exposed)

Date of Review:  Jul 27, 2002
The Bottom Line: An interesting tale about 1980s American heterosexuals who are tossed and turned by the winds of culture on an ocean of hidden reefs and anchors.
Review: ~~~~~~~~~~~~


"Everybody lies about sex."
- Heinlein


sex, lies, and videotape (1989, dir: Steven Soderbergh) is a dark little gem of a movie about what it means to be dishonest with others, yourself, and the forces...

Let's Talk About Sex (2005 Cannes Film Festival/Palme D'or W/O)

Date of Review:  May 20, 2005
The Bottom Line: sex, lies, & videotape is a cinematic debut masterpiece from Steven Soderbergh w/ great performances from Spader, MacDowell, Gallagher, & Giacomo.
Review:
When the 1970s ended the era of young auteurs who were more about art than making money, many wondered what was going to happen for films that told real stories and actually mattered to people. Sure, there's a lot of films that people remember...

sex, lies and videotape's plot is thicker than Peter Gallagher's eyebrows

Date of Review:  Jul 30, 2007
The Bottom Line: is sexing, lying and videotaping.
Review: sex, lies and videotape is a special film because each of its components coalesce seamlessly to form an ingenious, stratified, harrowing view of human relationships and sexuality. The title encapsulates the film excellently: in many scenes, we're...

Sex, Lies and Film Stock - What Closer Would Look like if Soderbergh Wrote It

Date of Review:  Jan 1, 2005
The Bottom Line: This is a great film for people who like to explore relationships.
Review: I read the script to sex, lies and videotape before I actually saw the movie - and I can honestly say, the script was better. Screenwriting self-helper, Alex Epstein, speaks of "transparency," the quality of a script that causes you to forget you're...

Incorporate It Into Your Collection

Date of Review:  Mar 30, 2006
The Bottom Line: Although it's impossible to speak for everyone, I must promote this as a perfect film. One reviewer's opinion.
Review: Okay, I'm highly biased. This is my favorite movie of all time.

It's a moody movie, set in the South, where emotion and dialogue carry me (and probably you) to the end. It's so good that, for me, it has become "peanut butter fiction," as...

Sex, Lies, & Videotape

Date of Review:  Aug 29, 2000
Review: Not only does it's sinful title capture your attention, but the overlaying of characters and the powerful dialogues that make up this film help to create its own world inside that of the four lead characters.

After seeing director Steven...

"Can I tell you something personal?"

Date of Review:  May 10, 2008
The Bottom Line: See for yourself. It illuminates the profound effect people are capable of having in their relationships with others, and how healing takes place in the wake of a devastating betrayal.
Review: Sex, Lies and Videotape is a provocative story about betrayal, deceipt, and the dysfunctional coping behavior of a man that enables him to avoid developing intimate relationships with women, but which is, ultimately, the catalyst for healing and a...

Review: "Sex, Lies, & Videotape" is a wonderful testament to modern love, and psychology. Steven Soderberg's directorial debut is emotionally gripping and true. Using 4 central characters, Soderberg who also wrote the film, is able to weave a realistic and...
