Hello Daryl!

That's certainly a very dramatic musical piece. I can imagine  
the scene with the music.

One film that I recall were classical music is featured quite a  
bit is Clockwork Orange. The music set to the fast-motion sex  
scene with the two girls is memorable.

When a woman says "no" and the man says "yes", there would be a  
lot of backlash these days.

There are quite a few older films that depict that reversal too.
