Evocative of the Roaring Twenties, "Emily" (Aka "The Awakening of Emily") is an erotic coming-of-age film featuring meticulous period detail and music. The sharp class distinctions of British society are blurred by the universal nature of sexual desire.

i watched bc it was mentioned in the crown….but not good. pretty terrible actually
When I think of the erotic possibilities of the vaseline-smeared lens of 1970's sex cinema, I don't know about you, but my mind immediately turns to 1960's character actor and Beatles/Richard Lester alumni Victor Spinetti.
Oh, no. Wait. That's not what happens.
This is an ill-advised Merchant Ivory-meets-Emmanuelle journey into the sexual awakening of Emily, played by estranged Prince Andrew squeeze and part time celebrity Koo Stark. Because this is a piece of softcore erotica, we absolutely do not see any of the good stuff. Instead, we are treated to long stretches featuring British socialites trying to have their way with Koo, featuring a grab bag of tropes from soft 70's sex flicks. Koo as a nude model for a…
Watched to tick it off my Dying To See list. Koo Stark a better actor than I was expecting. Film’s pretty terrible though.
Pas très bien ce film érotique britannique. Au-delà de ne rien proposer formellement, il est surtout assez gênant de voir tous ces vieux messieurs vouloir se taper une fille de dix-sept ans.
It’s almost Valentine's Day, so I wanted something ethereal and trashy! A VHS rip of an X-rated period piece from the 70’s seemed like the right move. Plus the poster looks like the Cars record Candy-O. So this girl is a severe chronic masturbator who nearly crashes her gay(?) boyfriend’s airplane because of it. Ok. That’s plausible. But I call bullshit on her being into all these old people. When I was her age, absolutely nothing was more repulsive to me than people over 30. Overall meh
Una buena película sobre el crecimiento y despertar sexual de una chica, suena mucho más erótico de lo que realmente es.
La historia es bastante buena, aunque parece rellenar con cosas sobre la vida burgués.
Este tipo de películas de género erótico son las que la gente debería de pensar cuando se habla del tema, el erotismo también es un género que puede ser usado para contar una historia o para explotar los momentos eróticos. Ambas son validad y no se puede hacer menos a ninguna.
Por otro lado, creo que meten sub-tramas que terminan sin tener un fin o un desarrollo adecuado, terminan de forma muy abrupta.
