Hi, have you watched Women in Love (1969) by Ken Russell?
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066579/
Glenda Jackson won the Oscar I think. And you have also the wrestling scene, and that part about the fig.
http://i357.photobucket.com/albums/oo14/sandrogitano/51AKK3RJ34L__SL500.jpg

The original book is by D.H.Lawrence, minus the politicals. I remember in my ignorance I mistook D.H. to be T.E. of arabian fame.

This is quite a movie, and a classic. There is currently a xvid at tpb.
Cheers
