10. Baby-us Interruptus – Easy
It’s a horrible revelation when you’re blessed with the arrival of new life that the little screaming, pooping darling you’ve created through sex is basically the enemy of your attempt to ever have it again.
That reality was brilliantly reflected on Netflix’s Easy, on which enthusiastic sex-fan couple Tom (Orlando Bloom) and Lucy (Malin Akerman) use Tinder to try and set up a threesome. They swipe on a mutual friend (played by Kate Micucci) and their three-way kicks off well, only to be interrupted twice by the baby monitor.
But at least they eventually persist, and the adventure uncharacteristically isn’t used as a crutch to destroy their relationship as seems to happen on screen way too much.
