Doesn't This Make It Porn?

If there is any truth to this story, then the film in question must have an NC-17 rating slapped on it. Anything else legitimizes pornography as an art form.

Sienna Miller and Hayden Christensen are said to be convincing in their "Factory Girl" love scenes. The reason? The sex is for real, a source told the New York Daily News.

"It's not simulated," the insider said. "They're really doing it"

The News reports that Miller had a romance with "Star Wars" actor Christensen while on a break from her ex-boyfriend Jude Law — but then jilted him.

"They spent about a month hanging out," a Christensen pal told the News. "But then she decided that she didn't want a relationship. Hayden was devastated. He really fell for her."

Added a friend of Miller, "Sienna wanted to try to make another go of it with Jude. But again, it didn't work out. At the end of last summer, she and Hayden ended up in Toronto for more shooting. They hadn't talked in six months. But it turned out to be a great reunion."

It was during this "reunion" that the two former lovers, both 25, reportedly did the deed for the world to see.

Seriously -- are we going to start seeing REAL sex scenes on the big screen in the future? Or are we going to take a stand and draw a line here?

1 Depending on camera angles, it may or may not be more racy than an average television show.  Go ahead and draw your line, but the rest of us will think you're being pretty silly.

2 Don't you find the mainstreaming of a video of an ACTUAL SEX ACT to be just a wee bit troubling, Dan?

3 I have been on my soap box regarding pornography and posted a rather lenthy article, "Freedom of Speech and the Harm Principle", which ties in with your thoughts.  Stop in and let me know what you think.  TF

4 No, really, it doesn't, if you can't tell the difference by what shows up on film.

5 And when "legitimate theater" begins to include actual sex on stage, how will we differentiate between those performances and "live sex shows"?

Come on, Dan, isn't there some point at which a line needs to be drawn?

6 Absolutely, there are lines that need to be drawn, but it doesn't matter whether somebody's penis is inside somebody's vagina when they are being filmed having sex. If they show said penis entering said vagina, that's a problem for TV. If they show the same thing, but it's not real, but some kind of trick photography with a dildo and a fake vagina, it's still a problem.

If they show two bodies close to each other, acting like they're having sex, it doesn't really matter whether they actually are. What matters is what shows up on the screen.
