beautiful, sensuous, could have gone deeper
Review date: 2005-09-14 Rating: 6 out of 10

yes, this film is poetic, erotic and suspenseful. it is largely a very sensuous film, though i thought the sex scenes were actually the least erotic parts. each time was a very well shot and effective build-up, only to be ruined by extremely uniform, unimaginative, rushed bonking that will leave female viewers feeling cheated- and which detracts from the credibility of the film's claim to chart a true erotic journey.

i also got the sense (although i haven't read the book) that a lot was missed out or skimmed over; the film seemed to rush through all the various encounters and i was left feeling that the 'delta of venus' hadn't really been found, despite what the narrator claims. it was a good, enjoyable film, but i felt it could have gone deeper. and, please, some foreplay next time!

pornographic and romantic

To hide the raunch of Delta of Venus in a pretty package, there's lots of telephoto, foggy-lens photography.

The cast is attractive and capable. Audie England, who stars as Elena, a character based somewhat on Nin, looks like a young Michael York with long hair and a plump lower lip.

In the story, Elena is an American living in Paris with lots of artists in 1939. Out of work, she begins writing erotica for a mysterious benefactor who pays by the page. Too make her writing more realistic, she tries different sexual relations, which get increasingly, well, nontraditional.
