Elegy (2008)

In between the release of Japan’s Tokyo Elegy (1999) and America’s Hillbilly Elegy (2020) is Spanish filmmaker Isabel Coixet’s Elegy (2008). Based on Philip Roth’s novel “The Dying Animal” (2001), the romantic drama follows Professor David Kepesh (Ben Kingsley) who can’t commit to a relationship. Then he meets his gorgeous student Consuela Castillo (Penélope Cruz). How could he not become fixated on the sensual señorita? Understandably, his lust for her leads to a secret rendezvous which includes views of Cruz’s magnificent maracas and bueno booty. As you can guess, the scene is muy caliente! But since David is unwilling to bring their affair into the open, he loses her. The R-rated film also includes Deborah Harry, Dennis Hopper, and Patricia Clarkson’s fine figure! When the petite blonde delivers a classy striptease, we get to see her black bra and panties, followed by her pretty pale peaks! If that’s not arousing enough, the skintastic actress bares her breasts and bum while getting some from Ben in bed. As Pat picks up a post-sex cigarette, she proves she’s smoking hot! After a few years, David realizes what a schmuck he’s been. Luckily, he hears from Consuela again. She asks him to take topless photos of her before she loses one of her breasts to a mastectomy. Needless to say, Pen’s perfect pair gets some solid camera time as David documents her ravishing rack. But instead of saying “thanks for the mammaries,” and leaving, he’s finally able to stay and commit. What a happy ending!
