I think you captured (pun intended) the spirit of all films in your reviews.
The first NC-17 film was Henry and June. While Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down! came out first, it was originally released unrated after distributor Miramax rejected the X rating it was given. Later that year, after the NC-17 rating was created, Miramax had Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down! re-rated for its video release.
