Vaudevil terrible

Warning: Spoilers
Legitimate b-series for style, with quite a budget de iure. Yes, there's wordiness and queer pride but also vaudeville kitsch, indeed, with a hodgepodge of hackneyed opinions revolving around phallocentric opposition and gender strife but with the depth normally found in a reality show. You have to enjoy Riseborough in serious plots, like that TV episode of Black Mirror, it's very good, without doing what was asked for this role, overacting; Is it a coincidence that the second scene of the play begins when the conversation is halfway done?: "I want to hit, hit, hit someone until I knock their teeth out...", but under what premise would Susan have started to elaborate on all of that ( except for a room with syringes or a sniffing table and music by Marylin Manson taking into account that in the first scene we witnessed the street murder by punks but it felt so dramatic as if in a variation of Michael Jackson's "Bad" music video. To 10-F's neighbor Maureen, doesn't that feel like a bit of plot embellishment, Demi Moore's entrance, teen-level co-talk, same thing when Suzane and Ida discuss how to get respect for a woman or men gang members "find you later, don't you find me"?' LOL. I don't feel Artur's sexual conflict with Teddy is very realistic, maybe it's the dialogues or the work in its cohesion. I left the second star for the video at the end to two paintings.
