We Need to Talk About Kevin (2011)
We Need to Talk About Kevin (2011) is a psychological thriller directed by Lynne Ramsay. The movie follows the story of Eva, a mother whose son, Kevin, has committed a horrific crime. Throughout the movie, there are several sexual moments that are integral to the plot and character development.
The first sexual moment occurs when Eva and her husband Franklin are discussing their son's behavior. Franklin suggests that Kevin's behavior is due to Eva's lack of attention and affection towards him. Eva then reveals that she was not able to have sex with Franklin during her pregnancy with Kevin, which Franklin takes as a sign of her not wanting to have a child. This moment is important because it shows the tension between Eva and Franklin and how it has affected their relationship.
The second sexual moment occurs when Eva visits Kevin in prison. During their conversation, Kevin reveals that he had a sexual relationship with a girl from school. This moment is important because it reveals the extent of Kevin's depravity and how he was able to manipulate people to get what he wanted.
The third sexual moment occurs when Eva visits her son's former teacher. The teacher reveals that Kevin had been sexually harassing her and other female students. This moment is important because it shows how Kevin was able to manipulate people and use his sexuality to get what he wanted.

A number of pregnant women are seen in skin-tight maternity aerobics outfits.
A teenage boy refers to a girl in his class jokingly as a "cunt" and says that his mother will probably lecture him about having sex with her.
During an office Christmas party, a man oggles a woman's legs and later tells her after she rejects his advances that "nobody else would want you now."
A pregnant woman tries to teach her eight-year-son about sex by using euphemisms "the daddy bear plants his seed in the mommy bear and it grows into an egg." The boy crassly refers to this as "fucking" instead.
A half-dressed man is seen in bed with a woman next to him.
The sex/nudity is less explicit than the well known book, but there still are two sex scenes. Porn also briefly flashes up on Kevin's Disk (less than a second). Kevin also masturbates in front of his mom for about 5 seconds to make her uncomfortable.
Multiple scenes have sexual dialogue
At the beginning of the movie at a tomato festival, you can see a topless girl in the crowd. Not too explicit since it is shown from above.
You see a flashback showing a prolonged sex scene. This is not as explicit because it is at night, but you see the actors breasts and buttocks.
A man and woman are briefly shown rolling around in bed in a dark and hazy flashback. We briefly see the buttocks and darkened breasts of the actress in bed, though the scenes are dark, obscuring most nudity. This scene lasts about a minute but it is very dark in the room.
A woman loads her son's DVD onto her laptop, causing many clear but very brief pictures of several topless women and suggestive text. No graphic nudity.
A woman is performing oral sex upon her husband under the covers of a bed for about 10 seconds. They are interrupted when their child walks in. The man is lying back but the bedcovers obscure the act; only the movement of the woman's head is visible.
A teen boy is shown quietly masturbating (visible from the chest up; no nudity) for four seconds when his mother opens the door. He continues to make her feel uncomfortable.
