Sex Week cinema: "Betty Blue"

The 1986 French film "Betty Blue" - directed by Jean-Jacques Beineix -- is hardly a garden of delights from an emotional standpoint and that's what makes it so interesting. Starring the fetching Beatrice Dalle and Jean-Hugues Anglade, the film has some very, very blue moments, including an opening sex scene so steamy and conflicting that Lovefilm notes that it is "a perfect set-up for what's to come."
