The NC-17 rating slapped on Ira Sachs’ 'Passages' and breathless talk about a few scenes in 'Oppenheimer' have renewed questions of whether — or why — American movies seem more sexually uptight than ever.

I just don’t see a point in showing the actual act (even if they don’t show any genitals). I’m not watching movies to get “hot and bothered”, and it rarely is sexy anyways. Most of the time it’s kind of just gross.
