I can’t really recommend the gloomy art-house film Young Adam – there are probably better ways to spend your time – but the movie does feature a rather aggressive spanking and sploshing scene between Ewan McGregor (Joe) and the lovely Emily Mortimer (Cathie).

Joe is an unmotivated writer who squanders his day making a big bowl of creamy, yellow custard while his girlfriend, Cathie, is out working to pay the bills. When rain-soaked Cathie arrives home to find Joe sitting on his ass, she is understandably less than pleased.

As Cathie strips out of her wet clothes she prods Joe about his career choice and his time management skills. Joe explodes into a rage and poor topless Cathie ends up wearing most of the custard, after which Joe beats her harshly with a bamboo rod and then squirts ketchup all over her back.

It’s a scene of non-consensual violence and humiliation (Secretary this is not), but if you want to see young Obi-Wan Kenobi getting his spank on (and occasionally appearing full-frontal), Young Adam is available through Netflix.

Towards the end of the 1997 film Preaching to the Perverted, an anti-BDSM politician (and former headmaster) is chased down into his assistant’s cellar by aggressive paparazzi.

As the minister lights the cellar’s candles, he discovers that his loyal Miss Wilderspin has built a little shrine to his headmaster days, complete with a vintage school desk and crook-handled cane.

If you haven’t seen this movie yet, it’s sort of a lighthearted but positive look at the London S&M scene, featuring many actual BDSM practitioners as extras. You can view the trailer here if you’re interested.
