Customer Reviews of The Story of O
A Masterwork of Erotic Fiction I was prompted to write this review after seeing some of the tripe written about the film. Most so-called adult films are mindless, empty, clinical depictions of rutting and most "erotica" is childish and bland. The Story of O is different: it is literature and the film is an excellent adaptation of the novel. I read the novel first and felt nothing but satisfation on viewing the film. The director and cast bring the novel alive as it is meant to be.
This story, written by a woman I might add, is not about the exploitation of women or a woman. It is not about submission to anything other than one's own love and sexuality. It is symbolic, so profoundly so, that it must touch upon our archetypes.
Many might miss that through submission, O conquers her lover--totally. There is an irony here in that her lover ends up the submissive one. She taps into the infinite power of her femininity and becomes a goddess. I am not into bondage and discipline personally, yet this movie is a favorite of my wife and me. O haunts, she is supernally erotic, and profoundly feminine.
The quality of the film is first class, it is well acted, and is a classic. IMO, it is a must have film. It is the only erotic film in our house--the rest just are so bland.
The film does the novel justice!
I am often disappointed with films based on novels. However, this is not the case with The Story of O. Just Jaeckin (of Emmanuelle fame) does an excellent job adapting the eroticism and romance between the protagonists. The game of domination and submission mixed with the true love that exists between the couple is captivating and erotic. Corrine Clery does an excellent job in bringing O to life. Filmed in 1975, The Story of O has become a true classic. I recommend that you watch the film after you read the book, for the literary experience is more than the movie.
