Desirable games (original title: Le grand jeu ) is a French feature film shot for television from 2000. The film can be assigned to the French erotic genre.

action

Hervé and Bruno work in a company that makes CD-ROMs, computer games and online books. Their wives Sophie and Laurence neglect the two men due to their work and the cultivation of their male friendship. When a new face in the form of Thomas appears in the company, they invite him and his girlfriend Lise to dinner. During the evening Thomas said that he had written a book to help couples who have been married for a long time to maintain or rediscover the passion of their relationship, and that he was in the process of writing this book for a CD-ROM rewrite.

Under Thomas' guidance, Hervé and Bruno actually get closer to their wives again while getting stuck with their computer project, a game about dinosaurs . When they add stolen sequences from another game to the game, Thomas reveals that he is the new owner of the company Hervé and Bruno work for. He pulls the friends away from the development of the computer game and instead lets them write the book that he had shown them to have written, but which was only made up.

Production, background

The film was produced by Shoot Again and M6 Métropole Télévision. Le grand jeu was released in France on October 8, 2001.

Aside from the lesbian scenes, unlike other films of this type, only married people have sex here.
Parts of the soundtrack were also used in the film Golden Girl , which was produced almost simultaneously .

criticism

The film magazine Cinema found "Great idea: a CD-ROM drive as a source of pleasure ..." and then drastically proclaimed: "Erotic nonsense" and asked the indirect question: "Dear French, you can do it better, right?"

The lexicon of international films spoke of “sexual fantasies” and “mutual fertilization” in an “erotic film with a high-tech background”.
