Summary:
The USA has a severe problem: a lack of open sexuality and eroticism in Film and TV. After the Hays Code had faded away, Hollywood exploited the newly found freedom in films like Basic Instinct and Body Heat to name but a few. But when Reagan and Bush came to power, the public attitude toward sex changed again. Hollywood No Sex Please demonstrates how the American film industry correctly reflects these changes in behavior. Carefully selected film and TV clips ranging from Midnight Cowboy to Last Tango in Paris and Masters of Sex to Sex and the City underpin a narration woven together from interviews with those who are at the forefront of sexual liberation.
