Lovemaking (1971)

A delicate and arousing treatment of lovemaking. Its mode is simple and classical, combining technical mastery and personal restraint. The image is vivid subtle and ambiguous while the sound is sharp and clear. Barlett's film, in the judge's opinion, most closely approximated their idea of what is an erotic film should be – an imaginative, suggestive, artistic, non- clinical evocation of the sexual act. – Bruce Conner, Maurice Girodias, Arthur Knight: judges at the First Ever Erotic Film Festival 1970
