I was an 80s kid when I saw this movie. It changed my life instantly. This song haunted me until I found the album. It's all gone. Now we have nothing close. NOTHING
Me too... I saw this film in a movie theater that doesn't exist anymore (Cine Vitoria, in Curitiba City) in the 80´s skipping a class... I was shocked... lol...
You never know what you have until it's gone. Not to say we didn't enjoy the time. But we may not have cherished the time for what it was. The best of times. Sigh. To be young and foolish again. But I wouldn't trade being in my 20's in the 80's for anything.
This movie was so exciting. My God, look at Mickey Rourke, so handsome!!!!! Bryan Ferrry is the best singer of sultry music, ever!!!!!! The eighties were the time for music!!!! 🎶🎶🎶🎶.... 🥀🥀🥀🥀....
This 80s masterpiece puts the likes of Fifty Shades of Grey to shame. I watched it for the first time in my early twenties and was stunned; it remains one of my favorite niche movies. I particularly love the movie's cinematography. The tone is a bit cold and grey, perfectly suiting their toxic and doomed romance. Then there's the scene where they kiss on the street, the woman holding balloons behind her, and you can feel the chilly background light up around them, like a fire set in the rain. The divine 'Slave to Love' performed by the legendary Bryan Ferry is seamlessly woven into the storyline. 'The spring is turning your face to mine...' Spring has come, and so has love. Try as you might to deny it, I bet many of us can relate to at least one aspect of this wicked romance, or whatever you call it. Many relationships don't pan out the way we want them to, leading to nasty discoveries and devastating endings, but the beginning is always marked by euphoria, thrill, and a strong desire to explore the mysterious creature miraculously appearing in our lives, as shown in this movie.
I myself had a Relationship as exciting as this one & he was a Hunk with the Sexiest Smile & boy did he use it ! I declined to marry him because guys like this will venture out to explore looking for more excitement. It was the right choice but boy did I have fun for 5 years !!!
Wasn't he though?! I remember being in grade school and my mom rented this on VHS. When she went she was at work I watched it after school. I remember thinking I never knew a man could be so handsome.
I love this movie brings a big smile to my face most of all I saw this movie in the theater by my self twice, truly masterpiece most of all great actors
All of Adrian Lyne's movies are so beautifully shot and always perfectly lit. Say what you want about the 80's, but they knew how to make visually stunning movies back then
That's because in the pre-2000s, creativity was ACTUALLY something that was preserved, instead of censorship in the case of one hurting someone's "feewings".
THE MUSIC OF THE 1960’s STILL DOMINATED THE AIR WAVES & MOVIES LIKE THIS TOOK YOUR BREATH AWAY!!!

I was in my 20's when this movie came out. Loved it all. I watched this movie a hundred times. The best music, and storyline. At the end Elizabeth couldn't go back to John. He took advantage of her love. John pushed her over the edge when he took in another person. She knew she had to break it off. It was too late because he broke the one rule. Trust. 😥☹️☹️
When this film came out I was dating a man that looked a lot like Mickey Rourke (my fella was taller, more rugged... Mickey had more delicate features. He even dressed very similarly to John Gray - he wore beautiful suits to the office and had a beautiful apartment) and I remember watching this with him. We were together for four years and I left because he would not commit to marriage and kids. When he finally realized that I was serious in leaving, he proposed to me. It was too late, when I get to the point where I can walk away, I'm no longer in love. He spent months trying to convince me to come back but I had moved on. I often wonder what my life would have been like if I had accepted his proposal and had kids with him. I can't hear this song or watch this movie without thinking about it or the 80's. Bittersweet.
One of the best movie lines ever, at the end of their affair: "How did you know I would react to you the way I did?" Kim Basinger "I saw myself in you..." Mickey Rourke
It’s an interesting remark, as ultimately she wasn’t very much like him. In the end he supposedly wanted her love, but throughout he wanted kink. And she went along with it out of curiosity and thrill for him, as women often do, but she wanted love the whole time.
Никто до сих пор, да уже наверно никогда не снимет ни чего лучше чем уважаемый Залман Кинг. Это было прекрасное время и прекрасные фильмы. Благодарю его за них
I don’t think any MAN can ever match to the beauty of mickey ! No one can understand him and no one can be like him ! His facial features, his style, his appeal, his speach, his cloths … are inexplicable!! WHAT A MAN
Музыка само волшебство!!! Так пробирает, что хочется плакать счастливыми слезами. А фильм насколько прекрасен, не могу подобрать слов. В своё время не был оценён по достоинству, что очень странно.
Согласен фильм и музыка супер и наше поколение, которое еще смотрело его в видеосалонах оценило по достоинству красоту актеров и мелодию. Многим просто не понравилось, что все так закончилось, все ждали обычную любовную историю со счастливым концом, но нет, там не было любви, только страсть и отношения героев были обречены...Но в этом и изюминка фильма.
The Original 50 Shades of Grey, when will someone else agree on this, they think its all new, and its not....its all been done before, and I must say, the 80s did it better, now its gone a little bit to far....and Rourke was the first Christian Grey...
I agree w u completely! 80s were Special n this is the OG right here along w Secretary James Spader! This music is the Best! Cnt nvr get enough of this movie n music! 👍
And the music in 9 1/2 weeks is far better...:-) J'ai vu les films j'ai la musique des deux et la musique de 50 Shades N,appuie pas aussi bien les scènes et ne reste de pas graver ds la tête des gens...:-( And no nice striptease...;-) Only Annie Lennox and Skylar Grey are good..and one with Beyonce..:-( But all the tastes are in the nature...;-)
Its remarkable how in the 80's many movies had songs that were tailor-made for them, and many of those songs then went on to be smash hits. Its a pity that this creative phenomenon has disappeared.
Супер фильм❤❤❤😊😊😊 Это не просто эротика , это пример того, как люди сгорают от неправильных чувств..хотя, если бы герой Микки Рурка поработал над собой, то они бы не расстались❤️❤️❤️
I was 17, working at United Artist theatre. I walked in and sat down to watch this movie on my break. Whoa! I ended up watching it 6 times during 2 weeks! This is how a good romantic movie should be. Good story lines, good actors, good music. Love and sex can be expressed in so many different ways. But, it should be about pleasure, not pain. S & M may be normal sexual variation, just not for me. As for Mickey R. Yes, he was so freaking handsome in this movie. It breaks my heart to see him now. Common MR, so you fell off the wagon, get back on. Weight gain is not an absolute. We’re you not once a wrestler? Get a personal trainer, eat healthy and get back on track. I’m 51, but I’m healthy and look like I’m in my late 30’s. The passion and feelings are ageless. Many of my 70 plus friends tell me so too. Oh, in the movie “The Thorn Birds” with Richard Chamberlain, Rachel Ward, Barbara Stanwyck. Barbara Stanwyck said to Richard Chamberlain. She was mad at God for making her old, but still gives her the passion of a young woman. Before anyone says Yuck, we all will get old, trust me. But, like the songs says (Young at Heart)”You get the best part, if you are young at heart.”
Эта песня делает романтику отношений... Под неё всё так красиво!!! А на самом деле... Мужчина унижает женщину... Она от любви не расцветает, а истощается... Это не любовь!!!!!!
Mickey Rourke was so handsome in this film, at the top of his game and one of my favorite movies No matter how many times I´ve watched this video.....just love it more as I do.
The music played a huge part in this film. From the beginning when the credits start creeping up in red in a black background to just 30 seconds of Al Green's Love & Happiness then jumps into Luba's Best is yet to Come....jack Nitsze's Love Theme throughout in key moments.....the beautiful scene when they're shopping in Soho to Eurasian Eyes...and finally Luba again in the outro credits singing Let it Go....again while the credits roll. I cannot listen to those songs ever without feeling raw emotions as I feel when watching this film repeatedly. 35 years later and it is still raw emotional pain. We are a product of our times so I appreciate 9 and a Half weeks but I have serious doubt about 50 shades of buttcrack being able to arouse the feelings we experienced during Elizabeth and John's love affair.
Музыка и фильм потрясающе красивые. Микки Рурк здесь такой красавчик, зачем пластикой себя изуродовал, неужели там специалистов нет по пластике, так жалко, но это их выбор. Красивый фильм, смотрится как из другой цивилизации в связи с изменившейся действительностью. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Причём здесь действительность ? Это 20 тый век ,80 е золотое время и для кинимотографа и для музыки,сейчас и в том и в другом шлак полный,хоть у нас хоть за рубежом . Неважно как сейчас выглядет Рурк или Брюс Виллис ,который своих детей не узнаёт,главное какими они останутся в нашей памяти.
фильм, вошедший в золотой фонд мирового кинематографа. незабвенный Залман Кинг - мастер эротического жанра. Рурк, Бэйсингер - крутые, профессионалы, красивые, молодые, сексапильные....
No matter how many times I´ve watched this video.....just love it more as I do. i had a relationship likethis once.Ladies should try it at least once in a lifetime. 80's music the best.
Amo esta música! ❤ Assistí o filme na Itália, estava de férias, estreando lá! Voltei ao Brasil e o filme ainda não havia estreado aqui... Apesár de umas críticas meio pesadas na época, gostei do filme e, claro, dos protagonistas! 😍♥️💐👏👏👏👏👏👏 Pare mim, a sensualidade deste filme, coloca "50 tons de cinza" no chinelo! E comparar Mick Rourke c/ o de "50 tons" - não lembro o nome agora - impossível!!! 😉💋
OMG. These two shall leave their stamp of LUSTforever in my subconscious. I am a senior citizen now but was a young and gorgeous woman when this movie came out. My goodness. Like I stated. These two. 4:31 No one has ever replaced what they did so damn well The music. I listen to that in the old bats home and DREAM 😊
Um dos melhores filmes de romance que já vi na minha vida. Eu sou colecionador de filmes românticos e sinceramente, esse foi um dos mais surpreendentes que já vi.
40 years this movie has... it's like a painting to me... The woman who wrote the semi-biographical book on which the movie was based - I cannot help but wonder about the shock and pain she must have gone through... Would definitely have liked to talk to her over a coffee and listen to her story. I am grateful to this movie and to its creators' hard work. Our stories bring us closer as humans. And art is a like a window to these stories...
И в 2023 картина "9 1/2" не выглядит архаичной, из прошлого. Работа команды и оператора очень "клиповая", на эту картинку можно наложить любую музыку даже вне контекста. Это потрясающе!
Первый раз посмотрела фильм месяц назад.Теперь это один из моих любимых фильмов.Эротика на высоте,Рурк и Ким прекрасны,в самом их сценическом и физическом расцвете.
Смотрела в кинотеатре, вышла , как будто заново родилась, музыка, проходящая через весь фильм, выстрел в сердце на всю жизнь, только услышу, значит, про любовь!!!!!
wracałam z meczu Polska Portugalia i usłyszałam w radiu i znowu się zakochałam w tym kawałku , wszyscy jesteśmy niewolnikami miłości , pozdro dla szczęsnego i ekipy z B3849 , tych co z nami .....
New York City, 1980’s, Kim Basinger, Mickey Rourke, Chelsea Hotel, Bryan Ferry theme song = one of the sexiest movie I‘ ever watched several times in my teens. 9 1/2 Weeks, I still can’t get enough of this movie!
Tell her I'll be waiting In the usual place With the tired and weary And there's no escape To need a woman You've got to know How the strong get weak And the rich get poor Slave to love Oh Slave to love You're running with me Don't touch the ground We're the restless hearted Not the chained and bound The sky is burning A sea of flame Though your world is changing I will be the same Slave to love Oh Slave to love Slave to love (Na, na, na, na) Oh (Na, na, na, na) Slave to love And I can't escape I'm a slave to love Oh, oh The storm is breaking Or so it seems We're too young to reason Too grown up to dream And the spring is turning Your face to mine I can hear your laughter I can see your smile Slave to love (Na, na, na, na) Oh (Na, na, na, na) Slave to love And I can't escape I'm a slave to love Slave to love (Na, na, na, na) Oh (Na, na, na, na) Slave to love And I can't escape I'm a slave to love Slave to love And I can't escape I'm a slave to love Slave to love And I can't escape I'm a slave to love Slave to love And I can't escape
