I appreciate this class and the curriculum. And I realize a main part of this class is so we are exposed to many different types of foreign films and their styles.
However, with that said, I really do not have anything nice to say about this film. The music, the acting, the scenes, were, in my opinion - horrible. I had trouble getting through the film and really wanted to shut it off, but kept watching just in case we were tested on it.
And regardless of the supposed comedic content, I thought the film very degrading to women.
I found this film to be quite comical. The banter and love dance between Angela and Emile was quite entertaining. Their inability to communicate except through partial book titles and occassional jabs made it hard to believe that they were in fact a couple. The idea of having a baby seemed more like a spoiled bratt's way of getting what she wanted, much like a child begging parents for a new toy. I wasn't sure if Emile was just rude or silly when he attempted to solicit strangers to sleep with Angela to get her pregnant. The entire movie was riddled with comedic moments and kept me laughing. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThis movie was very interesting as far as the drama its all about the "baby" itself. However, the limited screen changes, some with bold colors. Seemingly, the actors were new to the movie screen.
