I havent watched a lot of movies where there was BDSM invovled and or undercurrents. I remember right when i started to get into bdsm, i was watching tv with my girlfriend (she got me into it), and a movie came on. It was late, late enough for them to show this movie, and we were interested. The movie was of course The Secretary. We didnt know what the hell was going on in the begining, we were like "whats he doing..?" and or "why did she do that?". We were both very into the movie and decided to rent it becuase we were sure the tv network we were watching left out a lot of the 'good' parts.

We rented it, watched it and understood it better since half the movie wasnt cut out. Afterwards we bought the movie lol (when we broke up, i kept it..MINE!) Thats when i found the library and started to know what the heck was going on in my mind.

Neway back to the topic, i watch it now and i dont get mad persay just a little aggravated that they didnt go into bdsm more. They made it seem like, oh she gets spanked a few times and then shes his for life. They didnt go into any other aspect of bdsm, no canes, cropes, whipes, being tied, collars..etc. Plus they didnt say anything about her being into bdsm before him. Made it seem like she found him, and she automaticaly knew what she was supposed to do and say. Thats not always the case.

Also upsets me that they touched on her cutting but left it up to you to think that she stopped for him. I know the movie wasnt all about her cutting, but then what was it all about? Them falling in love? It hardly seemed like he loved her, maybe liked her but love..thats questionable.

Its a good starter bdsm movie, but it could have been way better. Now that i know what bdsm is all about and have been studying it for 3 years now, thats just my opinion though.
