Short description
While traveling in Paris, author Henry Miller and his wife, June, meet Anais Nin, and sexual sparks fly as Nin starts an affair with the openly bisexual June. When June is forced to return to the U.S., she gives Nin her blessing to sleep with her husband. Then, when June returns to France, an unexpected, and sometimes contentious, threesome forms.
What's left behind the scenes
- That same year, another film about Miller’s life was released – “Quiet Days in Clichy,” directed by French filmmaker Claude Chabrol.
- It was the first film to be given an NC-17 rating (no one 17 or under admitted), after it was introduced to replace the X rating (no one under 17 admitted). The film received the NC-17 rating for a two- or three-second scene at the beginning, where Maria de Medeiros’ character examines an erotic Japanese postcard depicting a woman and an octopus.
- Fred Ward played the role of Henry Miller (1891-1980), replacing Alec Baldwin two weeks before filming began.
- For filming, Fred Ward, who has brown eyes, wore blue contact lenses.
