"As far as Hollywood is concerned, the best way to lose one’s virginity is on the road. Whether driving cross-country for a sure thing or making a weekend trip to the state university in an attempt to get laid, teens are always taking sex-seeking trips in the movies. Already this year, there was College, which featured some high school kids having sex on a campus far from home, and now this week sees the release of Sex Drive, a movie about a guy traveling 500 miles in order to hook up a girl he met online, just so he doesn’t begin college a virgin. Though it may be wrong to celebrate movies that could possibly be encouragement for online predators and purveyors of sex tourism, we present some of our favorite cinematic virgins who lost it on a road trip: (Warning: potential spoilers ahead.)

"New York International Latino Film FestivalNickel N’ Diming Financing – Find the Right DealJuly 24, 2008On Thursday, I attended for the very first time the New York International Latino Film Festival, which presented over 100 films throughout the week. Earlier in the day after picking up my press badge from the Roger Smith Hotel, I hopped over to the Directors Guild Theater to see the film Mancora from Peru (the filmmakers were not present for that, so unfortunately, I have no Q&A notes, other than to say that I thought it was a fairly good film, which sort of reminded me of Y Tu Mama Tambien, which is the much better of the two.) Then I went over to Showbiz Software for a panel discussion on film financing, coordinated by Edwin Pagan, who made a brief introduction. The panelists touched on a number of topics ranging from ways to go about finding funding for your first films to "

"Alfonso Cuaron's And Your Mom Too is a movie about two teenage assholes who go on a road trip with an older woman for the express purpose of having sex with her. What keeps the movie from being 80's John Hughes film is are the facts that: A) the movie is aware the teenagers are obnoxious, B) it knows that one will one day they will mature and not be obnoxious, C) their actions have realistic consequences and D) the woman is a complete character herself and not a fantasy figure. The two teenagers are best friends named Tenoch (Diago Luna) and Julio (Gael Garcia Bernal). Both are fairly ordinary except for one thing- Tenoch was born into a very powerful and wealthy family (so powerful a family wedding is attended by the President of Mexico). This means the two have unlimited access to money, and therefore drugs and alcohol. They find it amusing to yell parts of the female body loudly in public and are often rude to others. They are not malevolent, but the drugs and alcohol com ... "

"March 10, 2008By Laura Tillman Along with films and music, Austin's annual South by Southwest festival offers pass-holders the chance to attend intimate panel discussions with experts and some of their favorite artists. Monday, three of the festival's Latin American born filmmakers joined moderator Charles Ramirez Berg, a professor at the University of Texas at Austin, to discuss "New Trends in Latino Cinema." About 30 seconds into the talk, however, they realized they might not have much to say on the given subject."I think there is a change in that Latino filmmakers are getting away from being so easily identified or grouped together and I think that's good," said Berg, who initially organized the event as a conversation between himself and producer Elizabeth Avellan. Avellan, who worked with her husband Robert Rodriguez on films like "El Mariachi," "Desperado," and "Sin City," recommended that Peruvian director Ric ... "

"Just what is it about J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series that makes it so irresistible? That drives thousands to wait in costume for midnight releases of the next book, the newest film incarnation? To hold marathon gatherings where the entire text of the increasingly longer novels are read from start to finish in one sitting? Perhaps because so many of us can relate to Harry’s plight: an orphan raised by ignorant and abusive muggles who is whisked away to a community where he is welcomed and revered for the very attributes that branded him a freak. Don’t we all secretly long to be cherished for what makes us different? Perhaps it is Rowling’s gift for making sorcery and everything that implies, the fantastic and enchanting and astonishing world of extraordinary humans (and other marvelous, terrible beings) plausible. She intertwines just enough of the commonplace with the wizarding world to make it feel feasible, genuine. Wizards and witches have their schoo ... "

"While watching Wild Strawberries the other night I began to come to a realization. I was watching a road trip movie. But like most Bergman movies, there is so much more to it. I'll admit it, I'm not the biggest fan of Persona, I think it has some excellent moments (hottest sex scene in a film has no sex at all), but as an overall film I found it lacking. Wild Strawberries is fantastic.The film starts off slow, at first I found the opening narration filled with exposition, I understood the man was lonely, I get it. Let's move on. You do not really get how misunderstood this man is until we start his journey. How he is haunted by dreams and memories of the past, which I never really understood until he visited his 94-year-old mother. I truly enjoyed watching this character's immense amount of history. That being said, it is a road-trip movie and I've always had something against road-trip movies. Perhaps it is because the concept is simple "a character or a n ... "
