PURCHASE THE DVD: Secret Things (2002)

Only the French could make a movie that graphically shows two women masturbating, shows those same women masturbating one another, shows tons of other sexually charged scenes of various explicitness, yet contains enough of a good story that it not be considered outright porn.

2002's Secret Things tells of a erotic dancer who is fired from the bar she works at for arguing with the boss. When a bartender tries to defend her, she is also fired. As the women talk and try to console one another, they become friends and move in together as roommates. As they both search for new jobs, they both land jobs at the same company, and decide to further their careers by sleeping their way to the top, without actually getting emotionally involved with their victims.

Things proceed nicely, but eventually, they become slaves of their own success as the young and ruthless CEO finds their weakness and turns them into victims.

Looking past the blatant sex, this is an excellent and well-done drama with some very good character studies. It's also sexy as hell.
