OK, so if no one knows if THE APPOINTMENT qualifies as erotica, what about THOSE SECRETS (1992), featuring a gorgeous Thomas Newman score? Again, the cover and synopsis seem to suggest so.
Sure is.
I think I’ve pretty much exhausted my collection of erotica scores by now, so was hoping others would chime in with their own recommendations. If not, I could always start mentioning fine ‘sex thriller’ scores beyond BASIC INSTINCT, which I said early on was also “allowed”.
OK, I appear to have killed this thread (as well). So opening up to sex thrillers — that’s a whole new can of worms, innit?
But anyway, it’s worth a shot. Again, it needs to move past merely romantic films, and although they don’t have to be explicit, sex needs to be a driving narrative force. I don’t have a lot of them, but I think I have some.
There’s Elfman’s FIFTY SHADES trilogy. Have to admit I’m no big fan. The best cue throughout the whole series is “Bliss”, which isn’t even written by Elfman. But I haven’t played them a lot. Should probably remedy that.
Scrolling through my iTunes collection just now, I realize I have very few sex thrillers (which would be a way to move this thread forward, unless others have anything to add). Yes, there’s your BASIC INSTINCT and DISCLOSURE, but most of everything else tilts over into romantic films instead, and that’s not what this thread is about. I think I’ve reached a dead end. So unless someone has more to add, this thread will drift down into oblivion now.
