Try "Waterdance" I'm not sure if if it's the one that the person who wrote the original article was referring to, but it does, in fact, have some scenes like that. I wouldn't exactly call them sexually explicit, but I think that's the movie that was referred to.

You know, the strangest thing about all this is that Helen Hunt has been around for ages and no one seems to remember her at all. She was a child actor in countless movies. You can literally watch her grow up on the screen in movie after movie during the 70's. For example, she was in the movie about the family who had two daughters, one of which was pudgy and unpopular and the other slim, good looking and popular. The latter was played by Hunt at what looks like about 14. The other sister turns to the dark arts and becomes a witch, killing her tormentors until the mother takes control and surprises us with an eleventh hour revealing that she is a more powerful witch than her daughter. Can't remember the name of that movie. Hunt later played enumerable teenagers. After this long career, all of a sudden she is discovered on Mad About You. I guess this may be like having a chance at two lives back to back. I think she deserves it. Both leads on MAY are great. I'm glad it's taking a thursday slot with S.

PS. If you look closely at the adverts for that new movie about a teenage zombie coming back to take his girl to the prom, you will see that Bob Balaban is listed as the director. BB is, of course, last years boss of the network that J and G are trying to sell their show about nothing to and who has become smitten with Elaine. He ends up in the drink trying to impress unimpressible Elaine. (My boyfriends back and there's gonna be trouble, Aylaaaaa, Aylaaa, My boyfriends back.) :-) :-)

Let's not forget that Helen Hunt played Murray Slaughter's daughter on one episode of Mary Tyler Moore. The one where Murray ghost writes an article for Ted and can't tell anyone he wrote it. The teenage Hunt is in desperate need of a new coat which Murray can barely afford to buy her. In the middle of a conversation about this, Lou Grant walks in and says "Hi Bonnie, nice coat!". Well I guess you had to be there...
