IMDb profile |
Ecstasy (or Extáze in Czech language) is a film made in 1933 by the Czech director Gustav Machaty. It stars Hedy Lamarr, credited under her original surname Kiesler, and Zvonimir Rogoz.
The film was highly controversial in its time largely because of a nude swimming scene. It is also perhaps the first non-pornographic movie to portray sexual intercourse, although never showing more than the actors' faces.
