Featured review
Absolutely textbook.
I disagree with the other reviewer--this is definitely a film to remember, particularly for anyone planning to make a movie. It's an absolutely textbook example of how NOT to make a film. Virtually everything that one could do wrong in film-making has been done here, and to the highest level of incompetence.
Firstly and most importantly, we have the absolutely non-existent plot. Then there's the utterly inane cut-and-paste script, full of all the most tedious cliches you can imagine--sensitive "intellectual" "finding" himself through a series of "profound" observations about his situation, boring hedonist unable to articulate his disgust at his own stupidity... the list goes on... Next up, it's the acting--it's not exactly what one would call "cardboard", a better description would be "awkward and fifth rate". Whilst a lot of the acting deficiencies can be blamed on the moronic script, the actors certainly do nothing whatsoever to salvage the situation.
Lastly, but in no way to be underestimated, there's the direction, cinematography, and editing, all of which make most peoples' home videos seem highly polished and professional. Endless cutting to different scenes with no apparent continuity, the "novel" approach of playing dialogue between two characters who aren't even on the screen, and finally, the camera not even getting the subject properly in frame.
I suppose the bizarre and ridiculous cinematography could actually be considered a "feature" of this film, since I've never seen anything like it in my life--I refuse to believe that mere incompetence could have achieved such an effect. The only other redeeming feature of this movie is the mild pornographic aspect, which plays orders of magnitude above the rest of the production in terms of quality. Rebecca Cardinale is very, very hot as the lead Italian minx--but sadly, her sex appeal is wasted on this self-indulgent dross.
