TEMPTATION ALL AROUND
For Your Gratuitous Delight: Gwyneth Paltrow Sashaying In Lingerie In New Movie Trailer
By Elizabeth Coady
FOR YOUR GRATUITOUS AFTERNOON DELIGHT, here’s the new trailer for Thanks For Sharing, Gwyneth Paltrow and Mark Ruffalo’s upcoming romcom about sex addicts finding love and laughter despite wanting to oink every sexual “object” walking by.
America’s “sexiest woman” and “sexiest man” join up to put the prettiest faces ever on the epidemic disorder known as sex addiction.
We have no idea how the movie ends, but we can tell you that it stars Pink, Josh Gad, Tim Robbins, Joely Richardson, Carol Kane and Patrick Fugit — and that it hits the theaters Sept. 20.
The trailer highlights the 12-step program that is integral to most sexual addicts’ therapy. It also touches on how ubiquitous advertising, media and Internet feeding our lust. Per Newsweek:
In fact, some of the growth has been fueled by the digital revolution, which has revved up America’s carnal metabolism. Where previous generations had to risk public embarrassment at dirty bookstores and X-rated movie theaters, the Web has made pornography accessible, free, and anonymous. An estimated 40 million people a day in the U.S. log on to some 4.2 million pornographic websites, according to the Internet Filter Software Review. And though watching porn isn’t the same as seeking out real live sex, experts say the former can be a kind of gateway drug to the latter.
Enjoy your gateway drug.
