Content Summary: Le Sexe Qui Parle, released in 1975, marks Claude Mulot's transition to fully hardcore filmmaking after previously engaging in softcore. The film quickly gained popularity in Europe and the United States, despite being slightly overshadowed by Lasse Braun's Sensations, released the same year. The plot centers around Joelle, a Parisian housewife portrayed by Pénélope Lamour, whose vagina unexpectedly starts speaking, voicing insults, profanity, and sexual demands. This bizarre development complicates life for Joelle and her husband, drawing unwanted media attention that forces them to seek refuge in a secluded location to escape a persistent journalist. As their troubles escalate, the film explores themes of sexual mores through the absurd premise. Mulot cleverly contrasts Joelle's sweet, submissive nature with the vulgar and assertive personality of her speaking vagina, raising questions about feminist and misogynistic interpretations. The film's unique premise offers a provocative commentary on femininity and sexuality.
