The Zen of Massage Many items produce a Zen-like tranquility by focusing one's attention upon the very small, urging the steps toward enlightenment by inviting the notice of even the smallest detail. Of this nature is square-foot gardening, the game of Go, and now, the viewng of Full Body Massage. Though beautifully set in the Malibu Beach area and within a beautiful, art-filled contemporary home, the "plot" is restricted to the conversations and induced memories of a handsome masseur and his gorgeous mature nude lady. They challenge and stretch each others' minds, taking us back to major events in their lives, all against the background of an erotically-enticing massage. I really wish it were available in DVD - it seems only to be available on the private VHS market (i.e., eBay and the like), and I fear multiple viewings will wear out my video cassette.
Magnficent but also mind challengin Mimi is used to having her regular massuese. And during these occasions, more occurs than just body rubs. Browne shows up as a replacement. While possibly attracted to Mimi's lovely assets, he is a professional, not a gigilo. He proceeds to give Mimi a great massage. While doing so and getting into some deep talk, Mimi has flashbacks to intimate vivid encounters with the "original." Special efforts are made to conceal private parts and Browne uses the towel very discriminately. At the same time, while not showing all, the early arguments and later conversation- discussions become intriguing. Mimi is disappointed in not getting the real thing. At the same time, she is awaken by Browne's discourses into philosophy and art. Those who want to see Mimi in the buff will not be disappointed, although they may want 100%. Browne's challenges in seeing her desires yet continuing on as a professional massuese are fascinating to watch. At the end, one can sense somewhat of mental binding between the two, not giving anything away. Will she invite Browne back for some discourse as well as a legitimate massage? Is he turned off with her own way desire or aroused by the willingnexs to enter deep discourse. There is little eroticism. There is lots of natural beauty and excellent dialogue. I view this film as a sleeper which more should see, but only if keeping in mind that this movie is not steamy like Eva Green's DREAMS or Gemser's EMANULLE ON TABOO ISLAND. I highly recommend it for all except voyeurs.
Mimi!!! I purchased this movie for one reason and one reason only. To see Mimi nude and this movie delivered. Mimi has a natural beauty; she is a normal woman who is quite sexy and what can I say about her magnificent breasts. Nothing like Mimi's body all oiled up! All Mimi fans should see this movie.
wow! If you like Mimi Rogers, this film is a must. Like my title says- WOW!
A Sensual And Spiritual Treat I first saw this movie on cable many years ago. After a long search I finally found it on an imported DVD. Definitely worth the price ! Aside from the fact that the viewer gets to see Mimi Rogers nude, Bryan Brown turns in an excellent performance as the masseur who fills in for Mimi's regular. He explains the origin of massage as a form of medicine to Mimi, ranging from the ancients to the Hopi Indians. The film also explores some of his family roots as well as the woman who apparently taught him some of the spiritual aspects surrounding massage therapy. If you're into massage, or even Mimi Rogers, buy this one !
