Today in Indian cinema class we watched the film, "Son Frere". Or My Brother. It is a French film set in Paris, and the first soundtrack piece comes in only right about now, at the 1 hour plus mark. And it's an English song. There's a weird magic realist scene all of a sudden. Whihch makes absolutely no sense.
Just like the countless number of moments where private parts are shown, people are getting naked and gay sex is refused. I mean, I don't mind edgy films or films that don't make sense, but it gets a bit repetitive if one scene jumps to another, then cocks are in the scene, and then some ass here and there, two cheeks for the price of one, thrown in for good measure.
The cinematography is fine, but honestly. What is the reasoning behind it? If it is meant to evoke some sense of his vulnerability or the intimacy between two people I get some of it, but it's EVERYWHERE in this film.
And now the projector died. And me along with it.
Note: Oh goody! Now he's going into the water naked! We watch his ass as he walks in...
