...Curious (Yellow) would in all likelihood not have become a vastly profitable movie if it had not first been the subject of a well-publicized prosecution by the U.S. Court of Appeals. In Sweden, where movies are almost never censored for eroticism, I Am Curious (Blue), Yellow's sexier successor, has fared dismally at the box office. Booksellers in San Francisco, one of the nation's most permissive cities, report that sales of pornography have dipped 70% in the past six months...

...Sexier in Slacks? There are exceptions, of course. "Although our employees dress real kicky and high fashion," says a spokesman for Tenneco Corp. of Houston, "I don't think pants would fit into that picture." On the other hand, pants are fairly common around publishing companies, advertising agencies and show-business offices. Such top restaurants as Chasen's in Los Angeles and the Colony in Manhattan, both of which used to ban pants from their premises, no longer turn them away. Arriving at New York's 21 last month, Comedienne Judy Carne of Laugh-In well knew...

...tight belts, tight shoes-just as men have been trying to get out of tight collars," she says. Norman Norell, perhaps because he is a designer, thinks that a woman actually has more sex appeal in trousers than in a dress.

But Sociologist-Author Charles Winick (The New People) probably comes closer to reflecting the majority masculine view. "Pants," he points out, "make extemporaneous sex more difficult." To say nothing about the fact that they also defeminize...

...like her blouse, keeps slipping; her emotional range is strictly Mount Rushmore. Yet she provides the torpid western with its most convincing scene. Under a water tower, showering in a shirt, she stops a train dead in its tracks. 100 Rifles makes it official: Raquel wet and draped is sexier than most actresses nude and dry. Along the way, audiences can review Raquel's entire body of work-a group of three poses...

Unless one happens to be a voyeur, it is sexier to imagine plays with nudes than to actually see them. Sweet Eros is no exception to this rule, even though the naked girl (Sally Kirkland) in this off-Broadway one-acter by Terrence Mc-Nally is on view for almost an hour. The skin show is more abstract than erotic, and terribly sedate. The girl is bound to a chair and gagged most of the time, and initially clothed. Possibly the most exciting scene in this distinctly lethargic drama is the one in which she is undressed by her captor...
