Provocative, alluring and disturbing… This is a groundbreaking film. I’ve never seen this combination of elements — gorgeous kids, nudity, mystery, eroticism, coming-of-age drama, and even some funny moments – done so effectively.
Pierre and Lucie are siblings who feel as though their bodies are two halves of a whole. They share everything, from their time spent away from home to their sexual conquests amongst friends. When they are not discussing the emotions they share, they play in their rock band, go to clubs, get drunk, and share their bodies amongst a close-knit group of male friends. As adolescent urges and hormonal impulses reach boiling point, tensions begin to fray. One day, Pierre does not come home. With Lucie growing ever more desperate to find him, and rumours of a crime circulating, she decides to take matters into her own hands, using her new found sexual prowess to try to obtain answers in a perverse microcosm of a teen society that has until now remained out of sight, out of mind.

When twelve ragtag teammates set out to play what should be a meaningless summer intramural baseball game, it ends up becoming the most important game of their lives. This collection of characters – the reliever turned starting pitcher (Tyler Hoechlin), a hot dog power hitter (Chace Crawford), an outfielder with anger management issues (Joe Mazzello), a player coach with clipboard envy (Duke Davis Roberts), an over-eager catcher (Ryan Pinkston), the old guy who shouldn’t be playing anymore (Philip Winchester), and the guy everyone forgot was on the team (Matt Bush) – truly gives new meaning to the phrase “amateur status”. As they struggle to transition away from baseball and towards an uncertain future, the best player among them (Aaron Tveit) – who they all felt should have gotten drafted – has to deal with the news that his big league dreams were dashed, leaving him grappling with why he should still play. One game can be just another box score, but when it’s played by a team…

WILD ORCHID was surrounded by controversy that the sex scenes between Carre Otis and Mickey Rourke were not faked. Most people think its some smut movie with no plot. No one ever looks between the lines. Yes it has plenty of sex, and a simple plot, but the theme of it is important. True love.
Model and subsequent Mickey Rourke squeeze Carré Otis plays a brilliant young attorney–well, we’re told she’s brilliant, although watching her in action, straining to wrap those puffy lips around her legalese dialogue, definitely conjures up other adjectives. She’s dispatched to Rio de Janeiro under the guise of real-estate law and ends up seduced both by the exotic culture and by a brooding, highly misunderstood and frighteningly orange-skinned multimillionaire (Rourke). Kinky (for the time) sex games and deliriously mannered dialogue make this a rather pretentious exercise, unleavened by any truly erotic sensuality.
