@wilfhunter I disagree with your specific sentence(s) about @baha815. (I'm not disrespecting anyone specially Admin(s) )

Let go some posts about off-topic posts..We don't post more often those..so please "Let it slide"...

About last to 2nd paragraph, you used words "Lengthy" which is bit annoying, as Its not lengthy but instead it is very much informative & in-depth INFORMATION regarding/about  movies/Series, which takes a lot of effort & time that it is hard to find about what specific dialogues leads to character(s) about cheating & it makes readers & viewers to watch / simply skip (just incase of others taste subject being hot or not).....

....so that specific other word "Wasteful" is also not proper as For some/a {very} few it (may) (be) "Wasteful" but for others/many more, it can be varied Details that leads to cheating scenario[ being crystal clear ] & clears about movies overall specific KEY details regarding Cheating(s)...& for last but not least...

 ....@baha815 is making your (+ readers/many members) job easier to consider for on/off-topic by IN-DEPTH (INTERESTING) INFORMATION/context & seamless efforts by editing videos which Saves a lot of time (again it is on ones-self to enjoy scenes or to watch whole movie if it interests SOME/more)...

[ Hope to not correct my grammer but my essence on people's work of providing and making this forum Alive through many/more members posts/contribution(s) ]

( Again, I'm just putting my opinion/thoughts/feeling, not trying to start a new War between member(s)/admin(s)...)

& & &

@baha815 be your-self (don't stop what you do/ no need to change as your style is fantastic), I/we (Many/Most of members) like/love & admire your (+other many respected members) work/contribution(s)..plz, continue it till eternity.

Okay, I apologize how I used the word, "Lengthy". What I just meant was that the review was long and detailed, and not in a negative way.

And to be clear, I have no problem with @baha815's reviews being long and detailed in general. In fact, I love them. The issue here is if the movie is still on-topic.

And about the word 'wasteful', I think you misunderstood me on how I used it: I used it to describe my deletion, not to describe @baha815's review. Meaning, it would be such a waste for me to delete @baha815's review because it is off-topic, knowing that it is very detailed and how he put much effort into it.

And that's why I jokingly said he made my job harder, because, how could I delete such a work he spent much effort into, because of the reason that it is off-topic?

And to address your other statements about wastefulness. Of course, they are now inaccurate because you misunderstood how I used it, but for the record, I'll still address them anyway.

I don't consider any review given by members here as wasteful. Just like, you, I think they're valuable, even if not all users have a use for a particular movie's review. I even think that reviews on off-topic movies are not wasteful either, just that the site loses focus if we do more of them.

Please also appreciate the fact that I have relaxed the rules in the past year or so, allowing reviews or guides to remain even when the movies they discuss fall into a gray area, like if cheating is only discussed in the dialog, for example. That's one movie that I say is in the gray area, because one requirement is that the movies we discussed here have some sort of eroticism (or attempt at eroticism even if it fails).

Others that I allowed that are in the gray area are: open relationships that seems much too open, or female promiscuity, with the female having no clear, established relationship with a single man in both cases.

In @baha815's case, one such example of a review I allowed to remain would be The Diplomat (2009) - WilfMovies.com , where, as he mentioned, there is no cheating, but that the wife is trying to get the attention of her ex-husband by showing off her body. She seems to be attempting to cheat, so this is actually very qualified even if it's in the gray area.

So @baha815, and others that keep on giving reviews and guides, like Melliot, or MovieFan on top of my head (sorry if I can't recall more names right now) I hope you continue writing them and putting effort into them. I, and the community, appreciate them much, but limits still have to remain in place for the site to remain focused.

The Diplomat Original title: False Witness (2009)

www.imdb.com/title/tt1090903/

Synopsis – Part One: The film tells the story of British diplomat Ian Porter who is arrested on charges of colluding with the Russian mafia, while his wife Pippa faces death threats and is placed under police protection. As MI6 becomes involved in the investigation, the international conspiracy and power struggle behind the events gradually come to light, plunging the couple into an even more complex crisis. Through a dual narrative of criminal investigation and espionage gamesmanship, the film depicts the survival predicament of a diplomat's family caught in a transnational criminal network.

Cast:

Dougray Scott: Ian Porter, diplomat

Claire Forlani: Pippa Porter, Ian's wife

Cheating Notes:

Sergei Krousov, a drug trafficker, hands the key to a suitcase containing a nuclear bomb to Ian Porter, a British diplomat. Heroin is discovered in a shipping container belonging to him. Scotland Yard accuses Ian Porter of collaborating with the Russian mafia, and he is arrested. Krousov threatens the life of Pipa, the diplomat's wife. Julie Hales then decides to provide protection for Porter and his ex-wife in exchange for his testimony against Krousov. Scotland Yard sends the Porters to Australia for protective custody. However, Hales discovers that Porter is an MI-6 agent and harbors serious doubts about the true nature of his involvement. Pipa is killed.

There is no cheating in this film. Pippa, the diplomat's wife, tries to attract her ex-husband's attention by showing off her body, first in the bathroom, then in the swimming pool.

(Pippa is still his wife, but they no longer live together following the death of their son who drowned in the pool)

In any case, Ian still seems to consider her his wife, asking her if she's seeing anyone, and when Pipa replies that not really, but she occasionally sleeps with strangers, Ian starts looking at her strangely (this isn't the answer he was expecting).

"Are you, um-- (Clears throat) Are you, um...seeing anyone?

(Laughs) None of your business.

- Sorry.
- (Laughs)

No. No, no, no. I'm not seeing-- Well, I'm not... seeing, really, no.

Just having frequent sex with?

There's never been anyone except you.

Anyone who mattered.

Can we-- Can we please be kind to each other?

Please?"

While the diplomat is in the bathroom, Pippa comes in and asks him if he wants to join her in the shower! (It's unclear why she does this; perhaps to make up for sleeping with someone else!)

He declines and tells her that sex isn't the answer to everything.

"Good morning.

How's the hangover?

Would you, um-- Would you like to join me?

(Coughs)
You think sex... is the answer to everything?

Well, it beats drinking yourself to death.

And it's not about sex, Ian. It's about intimacy."

Pipa takes off her nightgown anyway and goes into the shower alone (for a moment we see her breast).

Note that there are two versions of the movie. The Blu-ray version has no nudity, but the DVD version shows her completely naked (topless). To be more precise, the scenes aren't censored but filmed differently.

Still determined to seduce her husband, Pippa decides to join him in the pool wearing a bikini, which inevitably attracts the attention of the two security guards watching them. One of the guards even goes so far as to say that Pippa isn't trying to get her husband's attention, but his! while making comments about her peach booty.

"Oh, that's a peach. Check it out.

Hey, how about doing your perving on your own time?

She's advertising.

Telling me she's interested.

Yeah.

happy days.

(Morelli) Well, don't get your hopes up.

Only got eyes for her old man.

(Wilson) Bullshit.

They can't stand each other.

Heh. You don't know a thing about women, do you, Wilson?

That's why you're still single at 42."
