The Awakening – Geister der Vergangenheit: Directed by Nick Murphy. With Rebecca Hall, Dominic West, Imelda Staunton, Isaac Hempstead Wright.

Everything she believes unravels as the ‘missing’ begin to show themselves.

“u0026#39;The Story Of Ou0026#39; was one of the best known and most successful soft-core movies of the 1970s. While it reeks of kitsch appeal all these years later, it is actually a pretty good movie overall, and it still has some genuinely erotic moments. Corinne Clery (u0026#39;Moonrakeru0026#39;) plays the title character simply referred to as u0026#39;Ou0026#39;. She is absolutely beautiful and has a great body (which we see frequently as she spends much of the movie naked), so even if bondage isnu0026#39;t your thing thereu0026#39;s much to hold any straight manu0026#39;s attention throughout! O is introduced by her boyfriend Rene (the legendary Udo Kier) into the world of b and d, s and m, and suchlike. Initially reluctant to participate in these sex games she begins to blossom. Rene u0026quot;givesu0026quot; her to the sophisticated Sir Stephen (Anthony Steel, a major British star of the 1940s and 1950s), and O eventually finds herself falling in love with the older man. This is a generally well acted movie with lots of visual style and a haunting score by Pierre Bachelet. u0026#39;The Story Of Ou0026#39; has aged much better than one might assume and is worth a look, even if it is just to drool at Ms. Clery and marvel at how young and fresh faced Udo Kier looks in it!”
