Trailer for Hysteria

you. guys.
I have been waiting for this movie for years. and the trailer looks amazing!
I will admit, obviously I’ve known that giving ladies orgasms was a medical treatment back in the day, but I never really stopped to think what that would look like. Dang. Hilarious and awesome.
It’s due to come out at the end of this year, for those of us desperate to see it, but it doesn’t have a US release date and frankly I wouldn’t be surprised if it never does, because you know, a movie that cheerfully talks about ladies enjoying themselves sexually? Anyway, according to IMDB the UK release date is just “2011”, but it’s set to come out in Denmark on Octobert 27th and in Germany on December 22nd. Hopefully sometime next year those of us outside Europe will get a chance to see it at our local independent theaters, assuming those theaters are able to stay open that long.
All this reminds me, I bet y’all forgot about Hysteria, the movie set to come out some time this year (in the UK) starring Maggie Gyllenhaal and billed as “a romantic comedy about the invention of the vibrator”, didn’t you?
