I scrolled thru the other thread about what movie you first saw at the cinema and noticed there was a lot of Bambi so felt i couldn't spoil the memories so wanted to ask which Adult first movie you saw and how you felt...
My first adult movie was Soldier Blue with Candice Bergen and Peter Strauss...thought it was horrendous with the violent images but I've never forgotten this...and thought how could they make such a bloody film...I remember I wasn't 18 at the time but you didn't have to prove your age...think my friend and I went to the toilets a couple of times but the memory of some of the scenes has never left me...

Well Espresso Bongo can't have been X rated because that didn't come in until 1968. But I know we were too young to see it according to its rating. We didn't tell our parents what we were seeing.

glamagran yes Soldier Blue was Xrated and really thought the violence shown was real .. can still see in my mind one part where an Indian female being attacked.. and made me feel sick
