Bedroom Horror: The Fatal Attraction of Intercourse

Feminist Review 30 (1):89-103 (1988)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

A radical polemic like Intercourse and a Hollywood hit like Fatal Attraction may seem bizarre objects of comparison. Where Andrea Dworkin's study outraged male reviewers, Adrian Lyne's film infuriated their feminist counterparts. But despite the political differences, the two contemporary projects offer a surprisingly similar vision of sex.
