There's a very fine line between pornography and sex for the sake of art. Or so I've heard anyway.
I'm not sure I entirely agree with this.
A new teaser clip for the Lars von Trier film, Nymphomaniac, has been released. And as expected, is causing a lot of controversy.
The chapter five teaser clip, titled Little Organ School was quickly withdrawn from YouTube on Tuesday.
The film, starring Shia LaBeouf and Stacy Martin depicts real sex scenes throughout the film.
LaBeouf spoke of his role in the film.
"I have ethics. I'm not completely out of my mind. But I don't think there's anything wrong with sex. Sex is beautiful if it's done right. And I wouldn't just do it for no reason... Sex is different than love, and there is a separation, and that middle gap is what the movie's about."
The clip has since returned onto YouTube with a warning. Watch it here.
Do you think the use of such scenes is necessary? Or is it simply a smokescreen for pornography?
