Thoughts from a viewer,

This review is from: SEX & THE CELTS (DVD)
I wasn't sure whether to give this program five or four stars. It's a little weird being the first one to review it. But I can say that I enjoyed it immensely.
This is definitely not the History Channel. The presented facts become much less important than the evolving emotions and attitudes, which are accenting by the stirring music. It's almost worth it to watch this show just for the sake of listening to the soundtrack. Each varying theme casts the mood of a given era with incredible accuracy. It's a very sensual presentation, obviously meant for a mature audience. Yes, you will see bare breasts and sexual images just like on the cover but they're shown in a ways that's more artistic than explicit. I also like the choice of narrator. It's a woman with a low, languid voice marked by an Irish accent. She's well-chosen for the topic and adds to the over-all ambiance. Some might be put off by this show simply because it can be a touchy, somewhat personal topic. But sex and sensuality are integral parts of our history no matter how much some people might want to sweep them under a rug. I admire this show for its artistry and its bold approach. It's simply mesmerizing to watch. Don't judge it until you've seen it. You might end up equally captivated.

educational/interesting cultural facts,
This review is from: SEX & THE CELTS (DVD)
This film was pretty good. I am writing a historical novel with parts taking place in ancient Europe. I was hoping for a little more in ancient times (the second half became too "modern times" for what I want to write about.) However I learned interesting cultural facts and would recommend it.

could of been better,
This review is from: SEX & THE CELTS (DVD)
This wasn't bad but over all in all it wasn't great. It didn't really truly focus on the Celts. It was about sexuality in Ireland from Per-Christian to today.
