"The Brutalist" was also derangedly fixated. Will pass on "Anora."

I did enjoy "The Last Showgirl" starring Pamela Anderson, it wasn't G-rated but it plays as a sort of reverse objectification of the main character and reclaiming of feminine agency. Which Anderson seems to be doing offscreen as well. :)

“Sex worker.” Yet another example of how the left has changed language to try to legitimize immoral activity. Not long ago, she would have been called a prostitute or hooker. “Sex worker” makes it seem like it’s just another job - like a construction worker.

The Brutalist was suggested to me, and when I discovered it was about an architect I added that fact to the title and wondered if this was a the guy who started the horrible turn-away from beautiful architecture, which intrigued me, but then I learned it was 3 1/2 hours long. The only long movies I've ever watched were Fiddler on the Roof and the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Then I learned it was about a guy who escaped the Holocaust, and it was a definite "no".

I have the greatest empathy for those poor souls who were persecuted by the Germans, but I do not wish to watch depressing movies. No movies about sick or dead/dying children, or divorce, or WWII prisoner movies of any kind, Bridge on the River Kwai excepted.

Do you have a fixation on porn? Why did you even post a review of this “soft porn” movie?

There is a reason actors in ancient Rome were considered on the same social scale as prostitutes.

“I object to all this sex on the television.

I mean, I keep falling off!”

Anora is really good. It’s porn at all.

Honestly, I’ve never visited a sex worker. I don’t know any sex workers. While my libertarian views on sex workers lean towards “freedom” to sell yourself…I don’t care enough about them to watch a movie about the subject.

I think the interesting aspect of the movie is how cheaply it was produced. Good for those people. Indie films will save Hollywood.

And Bill Clinton said oral sex isn’t sex.
