This Bridgerton article contains MAJOR spoilers for Season 1, including the ending. If you think our sex education could be better today (which you should), then Bridgerton‘s depiction of Daphne’s pre-marital lack of knowledge around sex may astound you. In the first season of the delightful romance drama, Daphne has to find out about masturbation from Simon and heads into her wedding night knowing next to nothing about what might happen between two adults in lust, aside from the fact that it has something to do with the act of having children.

A Paris Education

Max SchindlerMovie reviews,
Etienne (Andranic Manet), a serious and impressionable shaggy-haired young cinephile, leaves behind his steady girlfriend (Diane Rouxel) in Lyon to study film in Paris. Settling into a dingy flat with a rotating cast of roommates, he immerses himself in a bohemian world of artists, intellectuals, and fellow film geeks who excitedly share their passion for Bresson, Ford, and obscure Russian directors. It?s a seemingly idyllic life of the mind?until more complicated matters of the flesh, as well as jealous creativity, intrude. [Film Society of Lincoln Center]Rated: Not RatedRelease Date: Aug 31, 2018
