The Reel Deal

Loverboy(rated 'R' - nudity, sexuality - on DVD) - starring Kyra Sedgwick, Campbell Scott, Kevin Bacon, Marisa Tomei, Sandra Bullock and Matt Dillon

It seems that Bacon enjoys his real-life wife(Sedgwick) getting jiggy on film.  Sedgwick plays an obsessed mother, raised by free-spirited parents(Bacon & Tomei), and determined to be more protective of her son(Scott) than her parents were of her.   As the boy experiences the outside world, Sedgwick holds on tighter, creating some interesting scenarios that are easy to relate to, however disturbing they may be.

Not what Linda and I thought it would be, but Linda never saw 'The Woodsman,' Bacon's other dark cinematic creation with his wife on sexual display(with him).  Makes you want to watch her in 'The Closer' on cable channel TNT.  Worth a rent, if nothing on television.
