Add to ORKGAccording to quite a few books and films produced in the last few decades in Europe and North America, sex is widely celebrated in Jewish sources.

This representation of Jewish attitudes about sex is highly problematic and is often based on only one medieval Jewish source commonly known as The Holy Letter. This paper discusses the use of this text in two Hollywood films: Yentl (1983), and A Stranger Among Us (1992)
