LaserDisc Movie Review:
The real-life relationship between two of the most controversial literary figures of the 20th century form the basis for this drama. Anais Nin (Maria de Medeiros) is a struggling author trying to finish her first book, a study of the work of D.H. Lawrence. She also has a keen sexual curiosity that is not being satisfied by her sweet but unexciting husband Hugo (Richard E. Grant). Through Hugo's friend Richard (Kevin Spacey), Anais is introduced to Henry Miller (Fred Ward), a writer from America who shares Anais' passion for both eros and literature; she is later introduced to June (Uma Thurman), Henry's wife and a practicing bisexual. While Anais is attracted to Henry, to her surprise, she's even more strongly drawn to June; June, however, must return to America, and with her approval, Henry and Anais begin an affair. Anais' newfound sense of sexual liberation leads her to several new lovers over the next several months, but she and Henry find themselves pursuing the same object of affection when June returns to Paris. Henry & June's frank but tasteful treatment of sexual themes led the MPAA to threaten the film with an X rating; instead, the film became the first feature released with the revised NC-17 classification. Mark Deming

It's not every day that the Motion Picture Association of America creates a new rating, but that's what happened in 1990 with Philip Kaufman's Henry Miller biography, Henry and June. By giving the film the an NC-17 rating, the MPAA allowed it to be seen in many parts of mainstream America, where an X-rating would have meant banishment. Though the rating has since become almost as reviled as the X, the intended differentiation between pornography and art was clear. In the end, Henry and June is not particularly erotic, but it is boldly sensual, in the vein of Kaufman's previous The Unbearable Lightness of Being. Most of the performances save for Fred Ward's portrayal of the rather pitiful Miller and Kevin Spacey's minor but memorable role are overshadowed by the film's visual splendor. Even the alluring Uma Thurman (as Miller's wife June) and Maria de Medeiros (as Anais Nin) can't compete with production designer Guy-Claude Francois' stunning recreation of 1930s Paris. Philippe Rousselot was rightfully nominated for an Academy Award for his lavish cinematography. Brendon Hanley
