2013 Directed by Joey Soloway
Rachel is a quick-witted and lovable stay-at-home mom. Frustrated with the realities of preschool auctions, a lacklustre sex life and career that's gone kaput, she visits a strip club to spice up her marriage and meets McKenna, a stripper she adopts as her live-in nanny.

so glad these white, rich Angelenos were able to use that prostitute as an emotional token in rekindling their sex life. great job.
The first two-thirds of Afternoon Delight are somewhat of a treat - it's not really the raunchy, female-led sex comedy that I thought it might be. It's more thoughtful, about a woman, Rachel, going through a personal crisis, and who deflects her own issues onto a stripper, McKenna, who she sort of adopts and tries to nurture while her relationship with her husband dwindles. Kathryn Hahn is great as Rachel, plays her just-on-the-edge of awareness of her own state so well - she sees a therapist, and lies to her. She feels attacked when McKenna speaks of men who think they can save her, when she doesn't really want to be saved. She's friends with other mothers, who she looks…
For a film that believes (wrongly) that it is objecting to the exploitation of women, this film sure exploits the fuck out of women. For its first third or so, it embraces deconstructing a few stereotypes about sex workers; for the rest of it, the film treats her like filth. It seems to suggest that McKenna is a strong, independent woman whose work is not the hellish, toxic existence most people think it is, and then just throws it all away by demonizing her and ignoring its own point. It attempts to have its cake and eat it, too, regarding the "straight(ish) white middle class couple saves 'poor' sex worker from her life" plot, both deconstructing it and playing it…
this was Quentin Tarantino's favorite film of 2013
- the strangest fact you will ever know
I loathe the last third of this but when Kathryn Hahn is at the strip club and the girl goes to lift her shirt and she says I had a baby and yanks it down and then the girl tells her it doesn't matter and runs her hand along her jawline and Kathyrn gives her that look
believe it or not this movie is actually 60 mins long and ends with the massage scene (and its gay)
This one was a challenge to finish. Kathryn Hahn gets the leading role in this one. She plays a stay at home mom who is very frustrated with her life. When her friend talks her into going to a strip club ...she meets a young stripper. She decides to help the stripper and eventually brings her home to be her son's nanny. This causes lots of chaos in her life.
I'm thinking this one is supposed to be funny....but it is depressing and not a whole lot of fun to watch. Near the end of the movie there are two scenes edited together...one scene is the ladies night out while the other is the boy's night out.....it is a brutal…
The first two thirds of this were the build up to the sapphic film of my DREAMS the last third? garbage
This movie is so twisted. An affluent woman uses a teenage sex worker to reignite her libido. The movie is so enamored and self-satisfied with this flight of fancy as it essentially objectifies this young woman. She is ogled and used and then cast away and we're supposed to feel bad for the privileged, bored people who did this to her.
OF COURSE this is one of quentin tarantino’s favorite movies from 2013
thanks amazon prime for that very interesting piece of trivia
