Emmanuelle II (1975)
6/10
Love power and no shaming
1 April 2021
I probably have seen the very first Emmanuelle movie when I was a teenager .. whatever the case though it has been way too long to remember, if this connects neatly to the first one. It seems to, considering where she comes from at the beginning, which would be the location of the first movie.

Having said all that, the movie seems quite freeing! In more than one sense and so I am not trying to use a pun here (well maybe a little bit). Talking about a little bit: while the movie itself is sexual overall, it is not like the movie ever goes pornographic. It stays sensual throughout of course! And it also sends a message, that men and women are sexual beings. That privileges are not based on gender. So if a "couple" feels like they should practice free love and fool around with other people ... who are you/me/we to judge them or tell them they are wrong? Do not shame anyone for how they feel or what they do.

So this can not only be arousing in one sense for some, but also hopefully opening some peoples minds. I was quite surprised to see such a wonderful message in a movie that I thought would just be some male erotic fantasy come true ... good for the movie and good for the viewers!
