Baise-moi (2000)
Country: FR
Technical: col 77m
Director: Virginie Despentes, Coralie Trinh Thi
Cast: Karen Bach, Raffaëla Anderson
Synopsis:
A porn film actress abused by her boyfriend and a disaffected drug user both flip at the same moment and join on an odyssey of killing and fucking across France, until they are stopped in their tracks.
Review:
And so we return to the narrative status of the erotic film of the seventies, and yes, this is in part erotic, for all its alienating grunginess. However, instead of lush, literary sexual portmanteaux we have Man Bites Dog meets Thelma and Louise. It's repellent, exhilarating and 'in your face' in its hardcore sex and violence, but is it art? Well yes, just.
