Yes.
Which I think I saw at the time.
I was living in New York.
I don't have a clear, clear memory of it.
I was tempted to rewatch it.
That's very good.
Well, okay, so let's acknowledge.
Unsullied mind.
It became a byword for kind of a Hollywood bomb, right?
It was slated by many, not everyone.
But it's directed by Paul Verhoeven of Starship Troopers, but that was later, I guess.
Basic Instinct, yeah.
Basic Instinct and... Some wonderful work in his home.
Robocop.
Robocop.
As well as some Dutch art films, because he's a Dutch auteur director of the highest caliber.
Screenplay by Jo Esther Haas, who'd also written Basic Instinct.
So it came with a very good pedigree.
It was an 18, I guess, or a 17.
So one of the things it was up against was that the audience... I think it was the widest release for a film that was age-restricted in that way.
