Skip it unless you're specifically hunting for erotic '80s nostalgia—this is a dated power-dynamic thriller that mistakes explicit scenes for actual character development, and the relationship dynamics feel more uncomfortable than compelling by modern standards.
Plot
An erotic story about a woman, the assistant of an art gallery, who gets involved in an impersonal affair with a man. She barely knows about his life, only about the sex games they play, so the relationship begins to get complicated.
Director: Adrian Lyne
Cast: Mickey Rourke, Kim Basinger, Margaret Whitton, David Margulies, Christine Baranski
