Summary:Sex Scene suggests that what we have come to understand as the sexual revolution of the late 1960s and early 1970s was actually a media revolution.

They discuss art films such as I Am Curious (Yellow), mainstream movies including Midnight Cowboy, and sexploitation films such as Mantis in Lace; the emergence of erotic film festivals and of gay.
