i got you
“Strange”
A Most Sordid Ancient Tale
The first Caligula – I didn’t expect that – Not from Oshima
The cinematography — nice, but it always looks better through here — John Waters
and here
Freddie Mercury
A little too close to porno
The ‘situations’
The sex is stupid
This guy sure is a grade a scumbag
The scoundrel!
Well it certainly OUTDOES Brown Bunny if you know what i mean
The comic oversimplification of things from Dear Summer Sister is applied elsewhere..
Wow something almost happened – a day dream
It means literally nothing to spy on anyone in this film
How else would the plot advance?
The only anchor is the METAL ancient ceremonial music showcased during private functions
Movie is dumb but some lovely pictures
I simply couldn’t finish this FILM
Although I DID
2 hr long gynecological exam
That long weird phone-call when you were a teenager that you knew even at the time was
dumb
Far from being ‘Art That Is Pornogaphic’ Realm of the Senses succeeds in being ‘A Pretty Good Porno’ – the same way a romance novel has a pretty good cover -
-
I could go on
I guess no more vapid than Oshima’s Cruel Story of Youth, but with a different trick
It would be funny if these two fucked themselves to death
You’ll get that joke if you watch it, kid
THIS IS A RESPECTED FILM
Your eyes are crogular
Your lips a shade of green
Whatever happened to that teenage dream?
“Watching your thing go in and out of me makes me feel good”
Check out that angular shit
That is the dialogue
“It feels so good”
[repeat]
[repeat]
Oh my god I can’t believe how LONG your film is
Like witnessing an entire era of the world witlessly coming to terms with their own sexuality – cute in a way but unnervingly insulting, the idea that a whole era of people could be so asinine fucking
On the plus side treats men and women equally stupid
The military
A vain attempt in the final moments for substance?
Two people who couldn’t give two fucks about each other, truly – s&m was born
– obv instrumental to Harmony Korine
YOU MIGHT LIKE IT
Goddammit there is a pretty good 20 min scene at the end
Well, They Did It
