I like artsy-fartsy movies. This one takes the cake. Pretty damn disturbing. Basically a woman who is a serial killer bangs a car, gets knocked up, chaos ensues. If you like absurdly disturbing foreign movies, check it out. | ||

I will stick with 'The Gods Must Crazy III' AKA 'Crazy Safari'. "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye". The Little Prince, Antoine de Saint-Exupery, pilot and author, lost on mission, July 1944, Med Theatre. | |||

I thought it was okay. One thing's for sure, writer-director Julia Ducournau's idea of car porn is vastly different from mine! The flick flirts with disturbing body horror, but then it becomes quaint-disturbing, if there is such a genre. It starts as a car obsession story, shifts gears (pun intended) to a serial killer tale, but finally settles into an off-beat mistaken identity drama. All that car stuff and killings just fall by the wayside. The pregnancy angle is pretty silly, but I admire the sheer determination of the director and actors to sell the idea with complete dead-serious poker faces. There is some random nuttiness that undermines the darker tones of the narrative. I have to wonder about the mental health of Agathe Rousselle's character in a world where there seems to be no sane citizens at all. Perhaps she's quite rational in that world. If nothing else, at least Titane is a respite from the base fast-food cinema churned out by Hollywood studios. I love Ducournau's depiction of French firefighter life. Better and wackier than Backdraft! | |||

Exactly why I'm drawn to these types of films. I consider all of the superhero movies to be man-child garbage, the remakes to be lackluster, and the forced "wokeism" of movies like "The Old Guard" to be nauseating. | |||

I, quite honestly, have NO idea just what in the name of Zeus' butthole that is. Please explain??? "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

Since the result is "pregnancy" I'm gonna have to guess she fornicated the car :-) ------------------ SBrooks | |||
