  • Benten Film’s latest release, the award-winning The Free Will (otherwise known as “that 3-hour German rape movie”), is available today. I’ll be posting a longish piece on the film when I get back to New York next week, but in the meantime, check out comments from Cinematical, The ScreenGrab, and Hammer to Nail.
  • Fleshbot notes that the editor of Showgirls/director of last year’s Dane Cook/Jessica Alba bomb Good Luck Chuck is also a published photographer of art porn. The Approval Matrix may need to be redrawn to reflect such achievements in middlebrow sleaze.
  • Speaking of dubious filmmakers: is Madonna turning into Mae West? Michael Musto is all for it, as long as we all agree to “pass a law that in 30 years she must start covering shit up.”
  • New Magnet release Shrooms leads Craig Keller at Cinemasparagus to ask an immortal question: “If, in a film, a character has to have his penis bitten off within the first 35 minutes, wouldn’t it be more interesting to let him live until the story’s end?”

    “That 3-hour German rape movie” doesn’t really narrow it down much.

    ZING!

    I’m German (by blood), so it’s okay. I can make these jokes. I kid, Germany! I kid.

    No offense - but I think you’ve just ruined my day. A THREE HOUR RAPE movie?

    I’m not sure I even want to ask.

    With dread I look forward to your comments on the film. PLEASE tell me there’s an enlightened reason for it! PLEASE!
