If Taschen's upcoming "Erotic Cinema" by Douglas Keesey and Paul Duncan is half as interesting as the preview pages we've seen so far, we'll be even giddier than usual when the mailman delivers a review copy to our door when it's released in June: according to the preview site, it covers everything from pre-code Hollywood films and modern hardcore releases to New Queer Cinema and "the latest trend toward real sex in independent and art films" We're so there.
