    • Thought Beyond the Gonads
Five stars for dealing with a topic/context that is beyond our everyday reality, but nonetheless permeates our existence...the conflict of death and life portrayed... naked, unashamed, dark, and truer than life itself, is death. It is important to see life as... in fact, intertwined with death. Sex as intertwined with life’s potential, but also lost and engulfed... sex as determinism, sex as a force of life, with death always at the door; where sex is a hollow act of a life, a life not worth living as a shadow of life forced to live. Amore yes, but in the same instinct with your mind wide open sex is a drug, an inescapable force which reduces us to an act we would only want to participate in from afar... like god itself. Sex is for animals and man aspires to be much more, but only knows, is limited by, eons of carnal knowledge. I need not outline our acts of penetration to the ‘wrong’ orifice, odd objects forcibly crammed into submissive openings, heads and hair yanked in subservient yearnings. Sex is truly an odd self-induced drug. This is not to dismiss the existential ecstasy of each merging into each, one becoming two, and all the climax of life touching our souls as we grope for one in the other. This film however does not touch on the heights of love’s embrace and instead its subject matter is much more pedestrian, and actually more real to most of us who have never kissed the face of god in love’s embrace of the lover. This film is real, not cosmic and wishing we could be more than the dogs we are, and in a disturbing fatalistic turn, we will never realize ourselves to more than the dog we are. We die, we die, with the glimmer of knowing there is more, but know, we know, we will never realize more than the dogs we are. Does this film ask the question what is sex? More importantly, does it prompt you to ask if you have begun to realize the limitations of your life, your perception of life and sex’s role in life? Is sex simply a role we play… are forced to play? The more poignant question, can we see life without the drug of sex? Without life forcing itself on us? Is there life after sex is realized as a drug? All of this and much more is encapsulated in our will to survive. We are forced to have sex, we are forced to eat, we are force to seek love even. This film depicts our determinants, as ugly, outcaste, loathsome, hopelessly alone, and leaves us with the eternal question of 'the meaning of life'. If sex and love are stripped away from our existential sense of self... what is left? I can love without sex, but is love too forced upon me? Why in the end do we feel compelled to love, and then we must ask too, who is my lover? Sex be damned! ... show more

    • Film for those who like thinking about how women think about male oriented society, staring a wonderful actress.
I liked it. It was made with great care, thought and skill. If you are looking for a sexy, erotic film, it's not that, it's much more about if and how a woman can have control of her life in our male dominated society. Lots of the plot lines and intellectual ideas were followed through and joined up, and I didn't mind about the ones that didn't. I wanted the plot to take her beyond her university years, to a period in her life when she was not making money on the side for something she wanted, education, and she's had the chance to build her own life that escapes short term solutions and her immediate childhood. A lot of the scenes are shot with static and sustained camera views: this gives you time to think and watch the film as you might read a novel, but if you were looking for a saucy flick it will drive you crazy. That said, I watched it with the thrill of a man watching a smart woman make a film about how men look at women using a gorgeous woman, which is a bit naughty and like the old men in the film with Clara. ... show more

    • Solace in stillness
Honestly I thought this was an extremely well thought out, moving movie on the properties of sleep and stillness and stoicism. I am no PhD candidate surely but something about this really moved me, probably because I am an insomniac 5 years and counting. Yes, fittingly, I watched this at 5:00am when I could not sleep so perhaps Lucy's fascination with a Good Night's Sleep resonated with me. Emily Browning was so good in this - the final scene SPOILER ALERT when she screams and screams and screams was so amazing to watch after so much time spent in stillness with her. There is also some deeper feminist meaning about a prone female and alpha males who may do whatever they will with her lifeless limbs - literally picking them up and rearranging them to their satisfaction but I've had too much pinot grigio to expand on that. And the production design is flawless, in particular the bedchamber in which she has her sleeping assignations - such a beautiful, thoughtful modern day fairy tale setting. This is the kind of movie that sticks with you, it did with me. The only question I have is, in the job interview, why didn't they ask her if she SNORED??? ... show more

    • Bizarre soft-core porn
I’m not sure why I bought this other than I had seen some of the star’s other films and she intrigued me. I thought this film was terrible at first, but since then I’ve gained a certain appreciation for it. I still can’t decide if it has a story or plot - but a lot of soft core porn. If I wanted to watch porn I could have gone to many other websites to get better quality than this. I felt embarrassed for the cast in this flick and I’m sure they are equally embarrassed for being a part of it. I won’t give away the story since there is none. But I will say that if you want to see the actress Emily Browning, there are many much better films to watch. But still, if you can get it for free or very cheap, it’s worth taking a look at it a couple of times ... show more
