The First 9 1/2 Weeks

Set in New Orleans, this steamy film follows hot-to-trot stockbroker Matt Wade (Paul Mercurio) as he heads to the Big Easy to court the fortunes of an eccentric, elderly millionaire (Malcolm McDowell) and encounters an unexpected distraction — the prospective client’s beautiful wife (Clara Bellar). Will he seal the deal or give in to temptation? Director Alex Wright penned this prequel to the erotic thriller 9-1/2 Weeks.
