Adore (2013)- R

This is a provocative and well produced film. It adds a new definition to the “cougar” experience. This film explores the very bounties of intimacy within a family. In the end it’s complicated. The story is of two “best of friends” mothers each having a son. We watch as the boys grow up to be young men ready for college. Each mother however, establishes a sexual relation with the son of the other mother. The mothers are at first shocked with their behavior. Later, they evolve into full enjoyment of the erotic adventure. The film crosses all the lines of family and generational boundaries.  The landscape photography and erotic photography is beautiful. This “cougar” theme is very popular in porn. The film illustrates a dark side of this fantasy where the young men lack the maturity to manage this complexity. The film is very good and I recommend it. It is available on Netflix. 12/15/17
