Emmanuelle, 1974. Promoted as erotic rather than pornographic (although that was a very fine line) it pushed the boundaries on what was acceptable in ‘mainstream’ cinema at the time. Very tame by today’s standards, but in 1974 it would have had ladies clutching at their pearls and saying ‘Won’t somebody please think of the children’! a la Helen Lovejoy.

One of the first “borderline porn” films I watched is “Y Tu Mama Tambien”.

Below her mouth.
The handmaiden is a fantastic movie but the sex scenes in it feel quite pornographic.
Poor Things
I don’t really know what my expectations were, but I went in kinda blind so it was a little bit of a shock for me
Unfaithful
Some pretty raunchy scenes in that one of Diane Lane getting it.
On that note, what is a porn that is borderline a movie?
That one scene in Bound is actually hotter than a lot of porn.
Nice try, three preteen boys standing on each other’s shoulders wearing a single trench coat. Let’s see some ID
Lars Von Trier has entered the conversation. Nymphomaniac is basically a very well shot dramatic porno.

I always say that Rocky Horror Picture Show is a porn film that had all the sex scenes replaced with musical numbers
