Live Poll: Polyamory Films

shortbus 2006

@mariojacobs

hello, the whole movie must be around it?

Not necessarily all the film, but at least a good part, so The Last Emperor doesn't fit.

I haven't seen Caligula nor Shortbus, tell me if they fit the criteria.

>I haven't seen Caligula,

better not😉its xxx-rated

but he has 2 lovers

drusilla sister

caesonia wife

last emperor had 2 wifes officialy

Not necessarily all the film, but at least a good part

The polyamorous relationship in The Last Emperor isn't that important to the plot. I don't know about Caligula and Shortbus since I haven't seen them.

Another important thing is the part where the Wikipedia definition says:  "with the informed consent of all partners involved." 

I agree. I haven't seen "Caligula", I just heard of it, but given that he was an emperor, the power dynamics at play would make the notion of consent quite doubtful.

That's a shame because the film is very good. I removed it.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show. The minons of the master are fully polyamory.

Breaking the Waves, is about extramarital intercourse. A man convinces his wife to have an extramarital affair.

Threesome, an accidentially beginning of an polyamory relationship.

The Dreamers. I't's a little dirty story about siblings who seduce another student in Paris. It plays around the '68 student riots.

Shortbus is widely known as cult movie, showing polyamory relations. It's all about intimate intercourse of the LGBTQ+ characters. It was a pioneer act, somehow.

@Breumaster​ The Dreamers and Threesome are already on the list.

Thank you, Max. Big one! Love it. :D

Maybe Jeorje is right. If you erase "According to wikipedia:", there still stands:

"Polyamory is the practice of, or desire for, intimate relationships with more than one partner, with the informed consent of all partners involved.",

which reads like an scientific explanation of yours. If someone comes up with doubts, you still can refer to internet encyclopedias or wikipedia by link. I also think it reads better, more clear. Which doesn't mean that wikipedia is wrong to mention. But in that case I would mention it when it comes to doubts, quoting or a longer explanation.
