The Red Vic Movie House in The Haight is arguably one of the sexiest movie theatres in the city. It shows indie films, foreign films and cool second-run films in a big-enough-to-be-good, small-enough-to-be-intimate single-screen theatre. There are cuddle-friendly bench seats, lots of cool people and the pleasant joy of supporting a co-op theatre. It’s a cool place with a sexy edge.

And that edge is a bit sexier today and tomorrow as a result of the film that’s playing: an old film from the 1960’s called Belle Du Jour. Yum, even the name sounds hot. The single-line description on IMDB is totally intriguing: “A frigid young housewife decides to spend her midweek afternoons as a prostitute.”

Additional words used in the description on either the IMDB page or the Red Vic page include:

Kinky

Erotic fantasies

Sexual desires

Respectfully temporizing caresses

Brutal degradation

Brothel

Fantasies

Evocative

Surrealist

Interest piqued yet? Mine, too. Seems like it’s worth a view and probably way better to do that over at Red Vic than to rent the film.
