Audience Member Lulu is 15 years old at the beginning of the story while Francesca Neri, while dressed like a child, is 26. Who imagined that? The devil of bad taste himself? Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member O primeiro filme de Bardem. Filme bem erótico. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Maybe because I read the book first but this adaptation is not as erotic and as explicit as the book, but it's worth watching. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member (***): Thumbs Up Strange, different, and highly erotic. If you can somehow find it (its hard to find in the U.S. unless you want to spend the $) check it out. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Psycho sexual drama from the director of Jamon Jamon. Stirred some unusual feelings in me - maybe it was seeing a near naked Javier Bardem that did it - far darker that Almodovar but of a similar ilk - writing a little less complex. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member The Ages of Lulu (Las Edades De Lulú) (1990) The sexual experiences of the insatiable and ever more kinky temptress Lulu (Francesca Neri) are chronicled in this film. In the story, Lulu marries the American professor who first seduced her at age fifteen in a car (of course). She tires of hanging out with him and begins seeking sex of all kinds, hanging out in some pretty seedy places in the process. Along the way, she has intimate encounters with male homosexuals, transvestites, and indulges in a bit of sadomasochism. This film made a big splash in Spain while it was being produced because the first woman who was offered the lead (Angela Molina) quite publicly refused it, for (obvious) reasons that spurred interest in the final production. 99 min. ?All Movie Guide Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews
