He sends her some rare first editions (happily, not “The Iliad”), hits on her at the hardware store where she works, and eventually whisks her off to his apartment by private helicopter - at which point James’ contemporary Cinderella story begins to reveal its Angela Carter side. Ana, for her part, responds by looking quietly dazed with lust, distilling the rich and complicated subtext of James’ novel - oh my god, he’s so hot - into a single oh-my-god-he’s-so-hot expression.įollowing their interview, Christian and Ana heighten their mutual attraction with a few not-so-chance encounters. Speaking with Ana in his glass-walled Seattle office, Christian fixes her with the iciest of come-hither stares, his cheekbones practically slicing through the narrative torpor. A nervous, dark-haired English literature student at Washington State U., Anastasia “Ana” Steele ( Dakota Johnson) has been assigned to write a school newspaper article on Christian Grey, a 27-year-old business magnate and university benefactor who turns out to be not just obscenely wealthy and successful, but (as played by Jamie Dornan) impossibly good-looking to boot. And for all the deserved criticisms of Meyer’s prose style, she really had nothing on James in that department, as demonstrated by sentences like “Desire pools dark and deadly in my groin” and “The muscles inside the deepest, darkest part of me clench in the most delicious fashion.” Is it sadomasochistic longing or is it irritable bowel syndrome?Īt any rate, it may partly explain why our heroine spends much of the movie looking not entirely in control of her lunch. A far cry from Stephenie Meyer’s pro-abstinence fantasy, James’ startlingly explicit story proved massively popular with women of all ages, ushering the taboo subject of bondage porn into the mom-friendly mainstream. The “Fifty Shades” trilogy may have first surfaced in 2009 as a work of “Twilight” fan fiction, but it quickly distinguished itself as its own hugely successful, thoroughly dubious pop-lit phenomenon (100 million copies sold and counting).
