Trailer:
This looks like a good film, I’m digging the cinematography and the acting. The trailer above doesn’t feel like an NC-17 movie, does it? Actually, it looks like a realistic portrayal of how relationships are. But, Deadline writes:
“The rating was given for a scene in which the characters played by Gosling and Williams try to save their crumbling marriage by spending a night away in a hotel. They get drunk and their problems intensify when he wants to have sex and she doesn’t, but will to get him off her back. That hurts his pride and the result is an upsetting scene that makes you squirm, but is an honest one that establishes clearly that this couple has nothing left and isn’t going to make it because love has turned into contempt.”
