Director Gaspar Noe rejected the idea on Thursday that his ultra-graphic 3D sex film "Love" was controversial at the Cannes Film Festival, saying it was ridiculous to ignore a subject that "everyone loves".
"I have friends who love money, some who love coke, some who love cinema, but the common point is that everyone loves having sex," the Paris-based director said at a press conference.
"So why is it so poorly represented in cinema? It's to do with commercial and legal pressures," he added.
Noe's latest film was the hot ticket on the French Riviera, with hundreds trying to squeeze their way into the midnight screening on Wednesday night.

The Left exposes itself daily; despite the corrupt media's feeble attempts to make conservatives seem like the extreme radicals.

It’s always about sex with the sickos in the film industry.

Ted Cruz had sex?
Well, that finishes him so far as I’m concerned.

Channeled and confined to marriage,
sex is a huge positive factor in society.
Otherwise, it is destructive.

I like taking a long poop because I feel better after doing it, but does that mean I should be out in the street taking dumps on public and other people’s property????
NO!

If you go to the doctor for your prostate exam, and there’s a hand on both of your shoulders, he’s doing it wrong.

Never understood why society screams so loud about public nudity and sex.
Showing a child a photo of a couple making love makes you a sex offender for life. Yet we introduce weapons and violence to children almost as soon as they can walk...

Well, on the one hand none of us would be here if no one liked that activity. On the other hand, there is a lot more to us than that one thing — one such thing is a BRAIN. If we would use our brains more and our urges less we would know that this sort of movie and all the social nonsense being pushed on us in this area are bad, inappropriate, wrong, immoral, etc. But this is the age of hedonism where everyone does what is right in his own eyes so long as he turns over control of his money, religion and moral sense to the government.
