In this episode, we discuss Hollywood dabbling with the concept on how to accurately portray BDSM on the silver screen. Honestly, for the most part, they’ve gotten it terribly wrong. K101 reviews a few well-known (and some not-so-well known) films recommended by the British Film Institute that highlight various aspects of the lifestyle - and how WE think they stack up to being good portrayals - and how they fail miserably.
What they consider “Accurate” films: The Story of O, Cruising, 8 mm, 9 ½ weeks, Belle du Jour
“Prime” examples: Secretary, The Duke of Burgundy, Preaching to the Perverted, Dogs Don’t Wear Pants
