One of the greatest films ever made, and probably the sexiest. The thing that makes it so good, and I think so sexy, is that both the characters are shy weirdo losers. That’s why they’re brilliant and sexy and likeable. You make Mr Grey not a shy weirdo and suddenly he’s gross and creepy and not at all sexy (looking at you 50 shades).

I will never forget the first time I watched this movie not knowing what to expect and coming out in the end completely charmed by this film centring a woman in a state of arrested development who practices self harm trying to seduce her sadomasochist boss into a loving relationship. Maggie Gyllenhaal is so perfect in this role I cant imagine anyone else playing her, and James Spader is also perfect casting because he definitely has the vibes of a little freak who’s still hot for some reason. The scene in the garden makes me squeal. Also, the Japanese poster is awesome.

there are a lot. most notably: secretary (hot), bad influence (hot), and sex lies and videotapes. plus the one where he has a car fetish like he's that guy from my strange addiction but in a different way.

I love this film like a rose loves rainwater, like a leopard loves its partner in the jungle, like... I don't know what like.

I am by no means traditionally religious, but I fully understand how being in the presence of beautiful stained glass can feel like being with god. ALWAYS stop off at a church on the way if you think it might have good stained glass. The bluebells in the bottom right corner of this made me loose my breath for a moment.

I used to be envious of people who had “MySpace friends” or “tumblr friends”. Now I have PI.FYI friends. Thank you capyboppy for your lovely letter and this illustration of a capybara and a mouse with fruit on our heads, it made me weirdly emotional ❤️
