Carnivàle (2003) is a television series that follows the lives of two characters, Ben Hawkins and Brother Justin Crowe, as they travel across the United States during the Great Depression. The series is known for its dark and mysterious atmosphere, and its exploration of themes such as religion, morality, and sexuality.
One of the most interesting aspects of Carnivàle is its exploration of sexuality. Throughout the series, there are several scenes that depict sexual moments between characters. These moments range from subtle to explicit, and they often serve to further the plot or to reveal something about the characters.
One of the most memorable sexual moments in Carnivàle is between Ben and Sofie. In the episode “The River,” Ben and Sofie have a passionate night together. This scene is significant because it reveals the depth of their feelings for each other and serves as a turning point in their relationship.
Another sexual moment in Carnivàle is between Brother Justin and Iris. In the episode “The Day That Was the Day,” Brother Justin and Iris have a brief but intense encounter. This scene is important because it shows the power of Brother Justin’s influence over Iris and how it can be used to manipulate her.
The sexual moments in Carnivàle are not just for shock value. Instead, they are used to further the plot and to reveal something about the characters. These moments are often subtle and nuanced, and they add an extra layer of depth to the show.
Nudity: The story features, among others, a family of strippers. Heavy frontal and rear nudity throughout the series. Both male and female genitals are shown on occasion. Once scene in particular shows a woman stage dancing, who stands on her hands and spreads her legs completely open, showing her pubic region with visible genitals.
Sex: a few graphic imitations of sexual intercourse. Open discussions of sexuality, including occasional sexual profanity.
Incest: a man (a priest) passionately kisses his sister on the mouth. Later in the second season, he kisses his own daughter on the mouth.
Rape: brief scenes of a woman being raped (in visions).
In one episode a man instructs his mentally disabled, severely underage daughter to lift her skirts to a stranger man, which she does (not shown, obviously). He then offers her to the man as a prostitute, claiming that "she won't complain" and "she's tight". The other man refuses and he's infuriated by the idea.
