Basic Instinct by Stevie Simkin
In the first in-depth study of Basic Instinct (1992), one of the earliest mainstream erotic thrillers, Stevie Simkin addresses the controversy around the film's sexual content (particularly the notorious interrogation scene) and its allegedly homophobic and misogynistic depiction of lesbian and female characters.
