Ok, so Roz and Lili are best friends who somehow managed to get pregnant at the same moment, so their sons are the same age.
When the boyx are 18:
Roz starts having sex with Lili's son Ian.
Tom is upset by this, and starts having sex with Lili to get even.
Technically it's not incest, of course, but with the boys being raised together, it's as close as you can get.
They try to end things several times, but one always backslides and ends up in bed with the other's mother, and then the other has sex with the other's mother to get even.
Years pass, and the affairs continue. But the boys are feeling the pressure to lead "normal" lives, especially Tom, who is studying acting. Naturally, a drama major who doesn't date women is assumed gay. So he (now grown into James Frencheville) starts dating Mary.
Ian (now grown into Xavier Samuel) is upset by these new developments, and starts dating Hannah, to get even.
The mothers don't appreciate the competition, and call off the affairs for good.
Years later, the boys are both married, with daughters, but inevitably one starts having sex with the other's mother again, and of course the other has sex with the other's mother to get even.
The wives find out, get mad, and leave with the daughters (well, maybe they are afraid that when the girls turn 18, the fathers will....).
The movie ends with a dream sequence in which the four lovers continue their affairs openly, a big happy sex-positive family.
The gay connection:
1. The mothers have a homoromantic bond.
2. So do the sons. They always start affairs with the Mothers to get even: "You slept with my Mum, so I'm sleeping with yours" They do this every time they decide to break off the affairs, and one of them backslides.
3. Other people assume that they are gay as well. But it's actually a four-way, intergenerational, incestuous polyamorous romance, the LGB of LGBT. Wait, is one of them transgender?
4. The movie is Adoration or Adore (2013). It's based on a novella by Doris Lessing, the British novelist who "forged the pathway for literary lesbian writers" by celebrating women's sexuality.
5. The sons are half-naked a lot more often than the mothers.
I agree the boys look too hot not too have sex with each other. This must have been the inspiration for a gay porn film called "Son Swap"
ReplyDeleteWhat a story... Ew! 😜
ReplyDeleteIf it were dads on the other hand... 😏
The movie has beautiful locations and the actors playing the sons are beautiful too- but it would have made more sense if they had become gay lovers instead of getting into each others mother. The women who clearly have some lesbian thing going on don't seem to bright- specially after they become grandmothers.
ReplyDeleteLovely. It's like bad fuck fiction using "pseudo-incest" in the tags.
ReplyDeleteThe movie would have made more sense if the boys were isolated and had no other sex partners- but they not only had each other- but would have met other guys and girls in school- the story tries to romanticize pseudo incest but the result is still creepy. The ending is pure fantasy.
