Ms informacin sobre las diferentes calificaciones por edad.In Shame, for example, I genuinely felt that I knew Fassbenders Brandon as a person, such was the craft of the acting and film-making; we peered into his very soul.In Cashback, we felt we knew Biggerstaffs Ben, because that film took the time to establish him properly.Those two very different films used two radically different techniques to fulfil the same role; make a character, make us know the character, make us seem real.
This film, however, seemed slightly empty to me; we never knew really know Lulu as the curtain shuts. We follow her from a 15 year old girl seduced by a much older man, to a mid-30 year old embarking on a sexual conquest of homosexual activity and SM hi-jinks, but by the end, I didnt really know why she did what she did. She was never explored fully, and this was the big weakness of the film; as a central character, she never seemed like a character. There were strengths; the film was merciless in its slaying of taboos (paedophilia, incest, bondage, fisting), and yet it never felt that they were being put in their for the sake of it, and the screenplay provided context and justification for them. The acting was quite good; even if we are never allowed to see who she is, Francesca Neri put in a brave, committed and commendable performance as Lulu. Oscar Ladoire is also effective as the main love interest of Lulu, Pablo. ![]() It also included a frankly unforgettable scene involving a threesome with Lulu, Pablo, and a transvestite which will not easily be forgotten once youve seen it. As you can probably tell, prude people prone to blushing, or anyone with moderate sensibilities, need not apply. All in all, it was a fairly good, incredulously graphic, shockingly rude film that is hampered by the fact that Lulu, as a character, never feels real. ![]() ![]() So much better than the other recommendations which come up when you look for this - Choses Secretes, LAventure, for example, which are really poor and theyre French, tsk, tsk - but this is the Spanish showing how this kind of film should be done. The story is well told, with just the right amount of romance and pathos. Les acteurs sont convaincants; Lulu, Francesca Neri, est engage dans son rle, sans pudeur, sensible, dtermine, femme. Lulu from Almudena Grandes is one of the best erotic novels with a sadomasochistic topic. You find detailed, empathic, erotic and sensibly written moments of love andor destruction. The film nevertheless is boring, superficial, sometimes tries to provocate, sometimes it works, maybe. It is not a NICE story, but it is quite a INTENSIVE story, but the film only floats along with no psychologic work. Depressing. Read the book. Some of the sex scenes are poorly shot, but the film is more than 20 years old and cameras, techniques etc have improved immensely during that time.
