Oh those sexy Asian movies

I am looking for a movie I once saw. I’ll describe it as best I can remember.

It is an Asian movie.

The protagonist, a student, is living at his teacher’s house. The teacher has a beautiful young daughter whom he has forbidden his student to touch. She therefore delights in teasing and tormenting him.

In one scene, he flees from her advances, rushing throughout the house, all the while trying to hide the fact that he has an erection. As he runs, he stumbles into a room where the teacher’s wife is lying on her back on the floor, masturbating. He trips and falls on top of her, instantly penetrating her. She clutches him to her and they make love, the student wild-eyed and fearful, the daughter watching.

Does anyone recognize this flick? Or did I just dream it up? (My dreams are sometimes like this.)

Updated: ZZZZZIPPP solved it, below (thanks!). I was misremembering the “On the carpet of leaves illuminated by the moon” chapter from Italo Calvino’s If on a Winter’s Night a Traveler—as fine an illustration of Pierre Bayard’s argument as any. Guess it’s time for me to reread…

      Hehe. It might be there. But I could swear I saw this scene in a
      feature-length fiction film, probably Japanese. I even vaguely recall
      watching it in a theater. And not Red Tube Theater.

      So weird: that totally happened to me this morning.

      ARE YOU SURE IT’S A MOVIE

      DON’T YOU MEAN THAT ONE CHAPTER IN “IF ON A WINTER’S NIGHT A TRAVELLER”

      Wait, I think I’ve totally seen that movie. Isn’t there also a scene where after dinner, the teacher sits down to read a scroll and smoke this absurdly large cigarette, smokey, poorly rolled, really more of a cheroot?

      Is there one like that? It’s been a while since I’ve read it, and I tend to remember more the frame narrative. Is that what I’m (mis-)remembering?

  8. A D Jameson

      Possibly, though I don’t remember that part.

  9. A D Jameson

      That’s what prompted me to post this.

      Oh you sly

      Yeah, just checked the text, and that’s it. Thanks!

      Although now I wonder if I didn’t see some movie that adapts it somehow…but that should be easy enough to check…
