Back in 1983, Jennifer Beals became a household name because of a little movie called Flashdance. To me, as a kid, I was interested in her dancing. As I grew up, I got excited to watch it for a totally different reason. The movie is steamy, from her storyline to the dance numbers and finally the music. Shandi’s He’s a Dream just makes you want to move your body like a stripper. Heck, I learned how to take my bra off with my shirt on thanks to this picture. That and how enticing it is to show off my braless shoulder in a sweatshirt. In other words, we get hot just thinking about it. You don’t have to melt butter for your lobster just thinking about that scene.
Well, that is us. Back in 2014, Beals had a whole new insight into the movie that made her famous. She tells Ellen DeGeneres today that she did not realize how sexual it was until that screening. What film of hers was the actress thinking of when she thought about this one? The movie oozes eroticism. Why else do you think the boys want to see it? It is not for the plot.
If Flashdance made her blush, then what does The L Word make her do? That show had more passionate sex scenes than the feature.
All this writing I just did about the film makes me watch it again. See you in a few hours because I am off to Hulu and Holla.
