anyone seen this film that came out in 2002 from mexico? I
saw it last night and it was tarkovskyian at times but some
of it didnt seem to fit together, but overall it was very
solid and their were some awesome images and some that I
wasnt exactly expecting or glad that i saw(a guy
masturbating, horses having sex and the main guy having sex
with an old woman) but i suppose they weren't there for no
reasons obviosly, it was a well done film and I suggest
anyone who likes tarkovsky's films to check this film debut
out if you have the chance to.

heh.

just got home from the movies...all i can say : disturbing!

without those scenes it would have been much more up to my
likings, i love this "silent" movies, just nice images,
gestures...but those scene were just too explicite imo

btw, scene with that horse sex - i wouldnt mind showing two
horses having sex, but why close up the penis!?
it would really be a much better film without those scenes -
at least not that explicit!

i read some more information about the film today -
apperantly film won awards for best director and actor

it makes me wonder why they picked the actor...because he
masturbated infront of a camera? having sex with 90 year old
woman?...he was good i agree, but i saw many better
performances - tho im sure many would disagree :)

i thought it was really good but i didnt understand the
necessity of them showing the horsesex. the masturbating
and sex with the woman made sense--those scenes werent meant
to be enjoyed it was just meant to show the state that he
was in--ie he needed those to make himself more spiritually
stable.

the end sequence was amazing...you agree on that right?

i hope he makes a new film soon because he definately has
the potential to make something even better than japon--good
first start--had its weaknesses but all in all it was
definately a well made film.

well, if you think those other two scenes necessary that
horse sex one was in place as well - it kind of prepared the
viewer on what is coming after that, what was guy thinking
of - perhaps it even stimulated him :)

i agree on the last sequence...i enjoyed most of the film
really, but i'd like it much better without those scenes

i definately understand you, they could have done without
the scenes but i supposed they added something but thats a
debatable i guess.
