...did I recommend it? I can't remember.
The thing about Lady Chatterly is that the movie was actually better than the book. Lawrence wrote three different versions (two are incomplete, the third is what's read in college-level literature classes). And all three versions are different. I read the first two incomplete ones and didn't like the third version (she has another affair in it, which totally takes away the impact of her affair with the gamekeeper). The movie actually took all three versions and mixed them up, so what you get is a movie that's better than any one of the books.
And yeah, it's soft core porn. There's actually a 'phallic speech' or something in the middle of it. Quite funny, actually.
