Lubricous – Maggie Clarke, Kate Bellamy

A broad spectrum of pleasures — tactile, physical, emotional, visual, and above all, sexual — are on display in Andrej Lupin’s “Lubricous.” The title, as it is used here, means “intended to arouse sexual desire” and, secondarily, “smooth and slippery with oil or a similar substance.” And it is oil, quite literally, that brings the film’s stars — Maggie Clarke and Kate Bellamy — together and fuels and facilitates (not to forget lubricates) the erotic action of “Lubricous.” Rose, totally nude, lounges on a bed. A stream of massage oil splashes on her body. Kate Bellamy glides his fingers and hands across her creamy skin, spreading the oil until Rose glistens and glows. His touch is light, his movements graceful, suggesting that the giver of pleasure is enjoying the feelings of contact as much as his partner. Rose then takes over, massaging her masseur and paying particular attention to his straining erection. As their bodies gleam in the soft light there’s a sparkle of playful delight in the lovers’ eyes — this feels so incredibly good we’re going to savor every second. And so they do. Straddling Kate Bellamy, Katy rubs her pussy up and down the oiled length of his tool — the playful look on her face suggests that she could achieve orgasm this way, but she chooses not to. Instead she takes him inside and, remaining on top and in control, she rides, relishing each rise and fall, every slick pump and thrust. When she’s ready for her finale, Rose rolls onto her back, with Kate Bellamy still inside, and he rocks her to climax and then he completes the scene with a splashy finish of his own. Sensuous and slick, “Lubricous” has a very happy ending.
