Admit! You also watched this movie to see Madonna fucking!!

I must say that the more years pass, the more I reconsider Body Of Evidence, as a great example of an erotic film!

In short: in recent years we have celebrated the 50 Shades of Gray trilogy; like the pinnacle of eroticism... What the hell! Compared to BOE, it seems like a Disney film...

Of course, it's not a thriller masterpiece; it is inferior to the progenitor par excellence Basic Instinct; (as tension and suspense, but not as eroticism): the direction is entrusted to an incompetent person like Uli Edel; perhaps there are too many courtroom scenes; some dialogues are a bit superficial and ridiculous; the script has some gaps and the ending is quite obvious; however... overall it has a great cast, with excellent actors!

Many say there is no chemistry between Willem Dafoe and Madonna during the sex scenes; but is not so! Madonna personally chose Willem as her partner and they rehearsed all the sex scenes locked in a hotel room for about two weeks (IMDB source) and I leave something to the imagination...
In the film Madonna does not use stunt doubles and the sex scenes (which are the most interesting part of the film) are absolutely borderline explicit; as in the infamous Candle-Champagne, scene in which Madonna is about to mount old Willem and then begins to ride him, enjoying and panting with pleasure; you can clearly see that Dafoe is excited and you can see the erection of his penis!

It is clear that the main protagonist is the Material Girl: beautiful, sexy and absolutely erotic and uninhibited, as expected from a femme fatale like Rebecca (the character played by Madonna).

Willem Dafoe may not be the maximum in sex appeal, but he is functional in the role of the naive lawyer who is won over by pussy and Rebecca's bowls.
If you read the career of this fantastic actor, you will notice that he is also a certain erotomaniac; (as he has admitted several times) and in his immense career he has acted in films with sex scenes that were sometimes too exaggerated and almost explicit (have you ever seen the 2009 film Antichrist written and directed by Lars von Trier? ?).

In short; BOE is a film that represents a period (the early 90s) in which certain films had the courage to make them and superstars of music and cinema had no problem starring in them.

Forget the critics, do not listen to the refined lover of respectable cult cinema: BOE is a great example of an erotic thriller and represents an era when the courage and creative audacity of Hollywood were far better than today.
