18 Movies You Thought Were Trashy but Are Actually Super Classy (Ranker)

"Movies develop misleading reputations through various means, such as marketing & word of mouth; there are many movies that people might assume are trashy, but are in fact way more sophisticated than they realize. Maybe there's an infamous orgy scene that colors everyone's memory of the film or a genre trope that leads you to believe a particular movie will be exactly like the low-brow movies that inspired it. In the case of movies such as Bernardo Bertolucci's 'Last Tango in Paris' or Nicolas Roeg's Bad Timing,' however, the ongoing controversies surrounding their content are appropriate. Both films contain upsetting scenes that are possibly unwatchable for some. But rather than being easily dismissed as trashy, they are the work of revered auteurs who were intentionally inflicting discomfort on their audiences for reasons that go beyond mere provocation. Whatever the origin of the misconceptions, it's time to set the record straight on these exceptionally classy movies." - ranker.com
