I Wanna Feel Dirty Tonight

Salamat kay Pebi at mapapanood ko ulit ang Irreversible starring the beautiful Monica Bellucci. Ewan ko ba kung bakit masochistic ako ngayon at gusto kong masilayan ulit ang mga di kanais-nais na aspeto ng ating pagkatao. hehehe

For those of you innocent souls out there, this film was notorious for being the most "walked out" film during its screening at Cannes. Wonder why they'd do that in the first ten minutes of the film...

well...it involves a fire extinguisher and some person's skull. You do the math...

WARNING! EXPLICIT AND VERY VIOLENT CONTENT! DO NOT VIEW THE VIDEO! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, NOOOOOOOOO!



If you've managed to survive that clip, congratulations! you have outlasted some of the more seasoned critics at Cannes.

The movie then features one of the longest rape scenes ever featured in a (non-porn) film. When I was watching this I was going:

Okay, here's the rape scene...

Monica Bellucci sure is comfortable having her boobs hanging out like that. Oh wait...that's not right...

Is that guy...Oh my God...he IS...Okay...

This rape scene is long...should we like, fade out here or cut to another scene, or maybe ANOTHER ANGLE?

*Ditch fidgets in his seat* Seriously, I would appreciate a cut at this point. Calling the director...

Oh...OH SH*T! PUTANGINA! Gago! Gago! Gago! Ba't mo ginawa yon?! Gago ka! Putang-ina!Linti! Yudiputa!


Ditch summarizes his feelings after the scene: I feel dirty ...and violated...I'm the lowest scum in the universe...I don't know if that's the intention of the Director but...putanginang director na yan...inom muna ako ng tubig...

I'll have to spare you the video since ako medyo hindi ko kinaya. And that's coming from me ha?

If you really want to watch this film, better be prepared to confront some really disturbing notions and themes. And, the film is not structured like normal films so it would be a bit disconcerting initially for those not used to weirdong style na films. And also..."Calmate" is Spanish for "(you) calm down" and "Mira!" is Spanish for "Look!". That'll come in handy in the scene with the transvestite prostitutes...
