Real gay women offer their insights into the sex scenes that earned the Palme d'Or winner an NC-17 rating.
French coming-of-age film Blue Is the Warmest Color has been at the center of controversy since premiering at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival. Despite critical praise for the three-hour exploration of teenage sexuality and relationships, several lengthy lesbian sex scenes featuring stars Adele Exarchopoulos and Lea Seydoux provoked a fury of warring quotes between director Abdellatif Kechiche and the two actresses.
In a new video from Posture Magazine, filmmaker Yeni Sleidi screened selected scenes from Blue for a group of gay women. While the panelists mostly agree that Exarchopoulos and Seydoux are clearly straight women acting the part, their reactions are consistently blasé when it comes to the controversial sequence.
When asked if the questionable sex scenes played out believably, another woman responds that "I would like to say no, but it was a little bit like my mornings."

So...would a film of me getting my freak on win any awards?
If not, why not?
Yeah, and you know, that reentry in GRAVITY was kind of fakey, too.
The give away was that they were attractive, not obese, and they shaved.
I was thinking, the lesbian reaction was likely
“No way! In real life, there’s much more hair, fat rolls, sweat, and bad breath!”
Woo hoo! Woo hoo! Woo hoo!
lol
“When asked if the questionable sex scenes played out believably, another woman responds that “I would like to say no, but it was a little bit like my mornings.”
Do you gotta be a member of the gay club to get that?
Apparently...because I have no clue what she means,either!
It just might... especially if it involves you, your bike and Alice.
Well, I read this. I have no idea why I read it. I have no idea what it even said. What did it say?
If it was two women having sex, they weren’t straight.
I think I’ll have glass of dry water...
I like watching “The Walking Dead”, but I can tell that they are not real zombies..... its a show.... they are actors.
Too confusing. Are the dykes saying that two straight actresses are portraying dykes in the movie?
If I understand correctly, they are acting. Why does this matter, let alone take up space on this board?
Thanks! You just totally ruined the show for ALL of us! ;)
that and their gardeners are probably fired.
‘The Walking Dead, ... they are not real zombies..... its a show.... they are actors.’
A bit of big, disillusioning news on this thread, bhf. The zombies are not real. Who knew?
