Crimes of Sex

About This Movie

Crimes of Sex is a fascinating little gem from 1969, blending comedy with a rather unconventional take on legal education. The film features an unknown director, which adds to its mystique, and it’s structured as an omnibus, so you get these quirky segments with a lawyer who engages in some rather cheeky lessons about sex crime laws. It’s this odd mix of humor and the serious nature of its themes that keeps you watching. The pacing can be erratic, but there's a charm in its imperfections. The performances are surprisingly engaging, with a playful atmosphere that reflects the era’s more liberated views. It’s definitely a curiosity, something that sparks conversation about how society viewed sexuality back then.

Crimes of Sex has a bit of a cult following due to its unique premise and the mystery of its unknown director. It's not the easiest find, especially on physical media, which makes it more interesting for collectors. The film has seen a few obscure releases, but original prints are quite scarce. Interest tends to spike among those who appreciate oddball comedies or are curious about the exploration of sexual themes in cinema during the late '60s.
