Description:
Matt, a young glaciologist, soars across the vast, silent, icebound immensities of the South Pole as he recalls his love affair with Lisa. They meet at a mobbed rock concert in a vast music hall - London's Brixton Academy. They are in bed at night's end. Together, over a period of several months, they pursue a mutual sexual passion whose stages unfold in counterpoint to nine live-concert songs. Featuring nine live concert performances not available anywhere else by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Von Bondies, Elbow, Primal Scream, The Dandy Warhols, Super Furry Animals, Franz Ferdinand and Michael Nyman. Special features include a Concert Performance-only option.
Amazon.com:
Maverick director Michael Winterbottom wondered about the double standard of why novels can have explicit sex scenes and be legit and films could not. So his short film of a relationship based solely on sex and a love for music is the result of that thought. If the definition of a porn film is to shoot actors performing graphic sex scenes for real, then 9 Songs qualifies. It certainly doesn't feel or look like your standard whoopdee-do XXX feature. It's as glossy and low-budget arty as Winterbottom's 24 Hour Party People or I Want You. But yeah, Matt and Lisa do everything to each other, and the actors are not 'just acting' in some of the sex scenes. No matter how landmark the movie might be, there is not much story here (at least a book with hot sex often has a good story to it). Lisa is an American drifter in London who hooks up with Matt, a scientist who studies glaciers in Antarctica. They have sex and visit nine rock concerts including Franz Ferdinand and The Dandy Warhols. As advertised, you can't find these musical performances anywhere else, but we just see them from way back in the crowd. The film has an essence of how someone can find bliss in another person's body, and the emotional, magical weight that can hold over you. But that spell doesn't last. Since the sex is real, Winterbottom had to cast unknown actors, and they really don't make an impression, especially with the lack of story. --Doug Thomas

Rating:  - how not to make a movie that incorporates real sex
I like art house films.I like the idea of using real sex to tell a story- if it a story worth telling.
This movie has no story. This movie has no characters really, simply songs and sex.
This movie could've worked had there been an actual script, character development, and some cinematography.There was none of that.
The concert scenes were uninteresting.The sex scenes were cold and yet the audience is supposed to believe that Matt actually loves ... Read More
Rating:  - A hot, edgy premise doesn't necessarily mean a hot, edgy film
You'd think that a short movie that alternates between edgy, alternative music performances and extended sex scenes between two young people would at the very least be minimally engaging, but I found "9 Songs" to be fairly dull.The music is murkily shot from the cheap seats, the presumably high resolution video photography doesn't seem very high-res at all, and the two young people just aren't very interesting as movie characters.The girl is kind of cute, I'll give the movie that, and some genuine ...

Rating:  - Porn in disguise... but good porn (and good disguise!).
If you're one of those people who loves watching sex on TV but doesn't like renting or buying porn, then you're in luck: 9 Songs is definitely for you. With more sex (and much better cinematography) than late night HBO, Showtime and even `Skinemax,' 9 Songs is a hardcore art film with little in the way of plot or story and lots of hot, raw, steamy sex.
An official selection of film festivals around the world, I've been wanting to see 9 Songs since I missed it at Sundance. Having heard a lot ... Read More
Rating: - MICHAEL WINTERBOTTOM, OPUS 13
***1/2 2004. Written and directed by Michael Winterbottom. An American student and an English scientist live a passionate love affair between two rock concerts in London. Very explicit sex scenes in this film which is an UFO in the non porno movie production. Now, is this film worth its boldness ? I personnally think so. It describes a slice of life of an average modern couple establishing a relation based on sex only and its limitations. In this perspective, 9 SONGS is the direct heir of such movies as ... Read More
Rating:  - HOT!
Sex, nakedness & rock music - what else could you want?
I thought this movie was simple - it cut through all the filler you normally find in porn movies - unnecessary dialog, weak storyline etc... it go straight to the point - this is a movie about SEX & ROCK & ROLL & they abound :)
I thought the sex scenes were excellent, there was real chemistry between the leads & they looked like they were actually enjoying it which is a nice change from hardcore porn (for ... Read More
