9 Songs
Matt, a young glaciologist, soars across the vast, silent, icebound immensities of the South Pole as he recalls his love affair with Lisa. They meet at a mobbed rock concert in a vast music hall - London's Brixton Academy. They are in bed at night's end. Together, over a period of several months, they pursue a mutual sexual passion whose inevitable stages unfold in counterpoint to nine live-concert songs. From TMDB

unlabelledView post →The movie '9 Songs' is a perfectly crafted diary of the law of diminishing returns that all relationships suffer. From the initial thrill and excitement to ultimate apathy that familiarity causes and that we cannot escape. And if that's not your thing, the male actor has a flipping enormous wang.
unlabelledView post →Margo Stilley - 9 Songs. Real sex in mainstream movie.
unlabelledView post →I keep seeing the movie "9 Songs" showing up in lists of romance/date movies and, uh 9 Songs is a porno. Like, full on x rated visible penetration porno. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but you PROBABLY shouldn't watch porn on a date unless you're really sure of how the night'll go
unlabelledView post →I'm reminded of the dvd commentary for A Cock And Bull Story where Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon were talking about the film 9 Songs which includes unsimulated sex between the leads. Coogan calls the film "brave" and Brydon says "if that's the standard, I have a pretty 'brave' dvd collection"
unlabelledView post →Hey, have you noticed how this movie 9 Songs is always on the Popular page of BFI Player? It must be really, really good.
unlabelledView post →Now I'm just saying there'll be some sex in it :) I mean god its not as bad as his other film '9 Songs'. That's proper 'Arthouse' Channel 4 Red Triangle stuff 😂

They shoved 9 Songs into that sucker and I think only 2 the songs actually worked. 1 Rap Song, 2 Ska Songs, 4 Punk Rock Songs & 1 Pop Song & 1 Original song. That was just ridiculous....I think I loved it.

unlabelledView post →I’m just casually scrolling through the “worst film I saw in theaters” and no “9 Songs with my parents”
unlabelledView post →This would be the perfect sequel to the film 9 Songs (2005).
unlabelledView post →The most… let’s call it “memorable”… film I ever saw at the Toronto International Film Festival was “9 Songs” A discussion on music, loneliness, Antarctica, and also unsimulated sex. That was a remarkably awkward 70 minutes or so at a world famous film fest.
unlabelledView post →I almost went on a first date to see 9 Songs, as I’d heard it was an artsy movie and I was a pretentious student in Brighton trying to impress. Safe to say I’m glad we went to the pub instead of what the Guardian called “the most sexually explicit film in the history of mainstream British cinema”.
unlabelledView post →One other movie I know that has both sex and music is 9 Songs, but its home media releases are rare these days, and people seem to only care about seeing the sex scene if its popularity in porn sites is anything to go by.
unlabelledView post →for Meadows definitely check out Dead Man's Shoes which is INCREDIBLE Winterbottom's work with Coogan is great (see also Tristram Shandy, The Trip) he also did a sex & music movie called 9 Songs that is pretty good.
unlabelledView post →Michael Winterbottom "9 Songs" (2004) can be found on a porn site bc it includes real sex (but it isn't a porn film - just bold) www.xvideos.com/video.ufeiiu...
unlabelledView post →Netflix used to have 9 Songs, “the most sexually explicit mainstream film ever produced in the UK.”
unlabelledView post →I don’t think 9 Songs is a good movie but it’s an important movie. Shortbus is good and important.
unlabelledView post →Uncle Boonmee w/ Apichatpong, Sátántangó in a theater, 9 Songs (people left the theater, I was alone when it ended), La Mala Education ( I went to a military school. I was closeted, my lit teacher, told about a movie from a guy named Almodovar.) As a kid, Lion king twice in a row with my dad.
unlabelledView post →I’ve seen both films and feel the same way: Shortbus is really good and 9 Songs is boring. Blue Is The Warmest Colour has simulated but very explicit sex scenes, but I was surprised at how slow and dull that film was too.
unlabelledView post →I’ve never actually seen 9 Songs tbh, I just know it as a film a lot of men I knew said was sooooooo amazing and it was obvious they were just watching it for the filthy bits and that put me off for life I’m afraid.
unlabelledView post →Not to be crass…but Margo seems to think the 9 Songs thing is cheeky/interesting but the only thing that movie taught us is that she can’t ride. She had absolutely no motion, left her butt at home & I never want to see another porn w/someone so thin their spine is visible. #LadiesofLondon

unlabelledView post →A film will be made about this whole disaster. It will be a remake of 9 Songs, but they'll be combing for roadkill instead going to concerts.

unlabelledView post →Micro Movie Memo # 109 9 Songs I’d been curious about this one for years. A film that mixes live concert footage of popular ‘00s bands with a domestic drama, Antarctic exploration and, yeah, graphic sex scenes. One of a kind, but I wouldn’t recommend it. 5/9 www.youtube.com/watch?v=xs9I...

unlabelledView post →Lisa is an exchange student in London. Her affair with Matt has the urgency of the ephemeral. They are enjoying an extended, unofficial honeymoon; we see them dancing, drinking beer, doing drugs, hanging out, having irrelevant conversations and, above all, going to rock shows (all nine of the titular songs are performed live) and having sex (Matt and Lisa have intercourse the same way they talk; ie, like real human beings as opposed to movie characters). There is generous nudity, and the sex is…
