Rosamund Pike says we're entering an age of 'prudery' with sex taking 'a backseat'

Actress Rosamund Pike has questioned whether the world is entering an “age of prudery” with less sex due to the impact of “wellness” culture, in comments made during her Criterion Closet interview this weekend.

In the interview, the Gone Girl and Saltburn star, 46, sifts through the iconic film closet owned by The Criterion Collection and selects her top picks. Pike’s first pick is I Am Curious, the 1967 Swedish erotic drama written and directed by Vilgot Sjöman that follows the story of a searching and rebellious young woman’s bold exploration of her sexual identity.
