Streaming Shortbus Online.
Movie Title: Shortbus Shortbus is available for streaming or downloading. |
I will admit, One of the main reasons I wanted to see this movie was because of the buzz about it being one of the most sexually explicit movies ever made in the non-porn industry. I didn’t really expect to find the movie interesting, I just wanted to see what everyone was talking about.

The first minute or so was nothing but explicit sex and I almost turned the movie off thinking it was going to be pointless, that this was all there was to the movie, but I had nothing better to do so I kept watching.
This movie is not porn, nor is it erotica. This movie IS an uncensored look at the truth about love and sex, and is probably one of the best movies I have ever seen. It is brutally honest, thought provoking, intense at times, and funny at others. These are characters that we can relate to, because they are real.

I can not say enough positive things about this movie, it is art, it is truth, it is exceptional.
It will definitely be a part of my DVD collection.
Strange as it seems, I watched “This Film is Not Yet Rated” and “Shortbus” in the same day. And some part of me wondered … did John Cameron Mitchell even bother to submit this to the MPAA? Not, of course, because he expected to receive a “passing-grade” from the prudish parents (and the two members of the clergy) that run the ratings and appeals board … but simply to force the cloistered collection of puritans to watch couples attempting to negotiate their sexuality.
The fantastic ensemble cast is phenomenal at arousing laughter, compassion, and perhaps a few tears. Moreover, in a weird way, watching Sofia navigate the Shortbus haven is kind of like a return to high-school parties: everyone is making out, someone is crying in the closet, a couple of people are watching television, a group of desperate goofs are playing “spin the bottle,” and your boyfriend (or girlfriend) is bored. Ohh, and you never leave very satisfied:)
What surprised me was how this film could have been painfully predictable, but was not. For instance, in the film’s introduction, Sophia expresses that she has never climaxed with her husband. When she explores Shortbus, she meets Severin (a tortured dominatrix). When the two women bond and become intimate, the viewer is convinced that satisfaction will come from another woman. Not so (thank goodness!). In fact, she is betrayed by Severin’s greedy lust. This is an unexpected, painful, and realistic turn for the film. I applaud the fact the Mitchell complicates sex … there are no easy answers for Mitchell (Thank you!!)
Unlike some of the reviewers here, I do not think “less is more.” We have lived with “less is more” for way too long. We Americans think sex is shameful … and if any films include it, they better be hidden in back rooms … behind ugly beaded curtains. These films invariably degrade both sexes and they degrade sex itself. This film shows Americans loving-couples (in many cases real-life couples) engaging in consensual sex. It illustrates the complications and beauty of these relationships. Never does it condescend. Instead, it graceful allows its viewers to become welcomed voyeurs … we learn as we watch. We experience the joy and frustration of these characters. It is … quite marvelous.
If you are tired of films that ignore the pleasures of sex for women (ignore, or as we learn from “This Film is Not Yet Rated,” simply are not permitted to show WOMEN enjoying sex), if you are searching for a film which treats the sex-life of gay men with playfulness and respect, if you are desperate for a film which makes sex “sexy,” messy, and complicated, then give Shortbus your attention.
But if films with gay men pleasuring each other and women finding pleasure at all, turn you off … well, you may as well return to the area behind the beaded curtain. The rest of us will hope that Mitchell continues to build upon his ground-breaking works!
Thank you, Mr. Mitchell!
