10. I wouldn't have known either, only found out because I googled.

I couldn't remember what year the Stamp/Eggar movie came out, and when I first did a search I got a bunch of results for a 2009 movie called "The Collector".

Now that I think about it, maybe the 2009 movie had nothing to do with the John Fowles novel at all, and just had the same title - I didn't actually check.

Anyway, I'm with you - I don't need or want explicit.
