Sex - the final taboo - is slipping its seductive claws more and more into mainstream films. From the days when the big question was "did they or didn't they?" to the explicit sex film "Deep Throat", which changed a whole generation's perception of sex, film audiences have been fascinated with the sexuality of the characters on the screen and over the decades film makers have increasingly catered to this voyeurism. While pornographic films are now shown in every city and are readily available on video, sex has increasingly permeated into mainstream films, whether thrillers like "Basic Instinct" or love stories like "The Lover". In fact, in many of these films, sex has become more than part of the action, it has become a major theme. This book chronicles this progression and recounts the history of sex on the screen.
