      Distance to Polanski

      The story goes like this. The director visits his old classmate, Luther Hawthorne. The latter is angered by the former's overlooking attitude, so he uncovers the director's dark history and forces him to admit that he had raped Hawthorne's ex-girlfriend ten years ago. The director finally admitted, and Hawthorne secretly recorded the sound and called the ex-girlfriend who was the subject to ask her to come. When the ex-girlfriend arrives, the situation becomes embarrassing. It turns out that...

      This translated name is offensive

      The Chinese translation name is a very spicy modification. For example, the semi-documentary movie "fiona" was translated into "Selling Orgasm" and "Mighty Aphrodite" was translated into "Non-Strong Aphrodisiac". It feels like a big-made pornographic film "Tape". Fortunately, "Sweet Rape Me" will definitely make many people who are not familiar with the actors in the play mistakenly think that it is at least a third-level film. When
      I first got the DVD of this movie, I was particularly...

      The sequelae of youth?

      There are only three actors in this film: Ethan Hawke, Robert Sean Leonard, and Uma Thurman. What's more awesome is that there is only one scene: a small standard room in a run-down hotel, two single beds, and a big ass. It's not the same as The Man from Earth, which also has several outdoor shots. This film didn't even show the door of the small broken house. Relying entirely on the tension of language, it didn't make people—well, it didn't make me— feel bored.

      I was looking for this...

      <Arabic God> VS <Rape Me Sweetly>

      Naturally, the names of Kitamura Ryuhei, Kato Masaya, and Osawa Takao can be the first highlights of "Arakawa"
      and the wonderful fighting scenes and original soundtrack can constitute another highlight of the film, but there is absolutely no other attraction.
      Obviously The meticulously arranged and broken temple is far-fetched with myths and legends. The plot of victory and substitution can be guessed by me. It is boring.
      Only at the end, the two strong men’s sympathy with a...

      "Audiotape": Linklater's wonderful writing practice

      Richard Linklater succeeded in making people admire and getting the audience to expect him from now on. With a series of unconventional works of his own, he explores the unique and full-bodied expression of film, which makes it difficult for people to ignore any of his works. However, it is precisely because of this that "Audiotape" appears to be like a film. The contradiction that cannot be overcome by itself: On the one hand, it is liked by others, and at the same time, its classicism seems...

      Oh! It's Uma again, Richard Linklater, and Robert Sean Leonard (a roommate in the Death Poetry Club). It was still an 80-minute dialogue movie, and Uma made people wait for almost 50 minutes before making a grand appearance. However, her appearance completely promoted the interesting progress of the...

      It's so straightforward to turn to the past. Sometimes the truth is really hurtful, especially when it is related to...

      Metoo accidentally watched a "date rape suspicion" at the hot moment, which is a good sample. Adapted from a play, a three-person dialogue scene in a single scene, with wild shaking instead of front and back...

      The sweet rape of me is the best commentary of this movie... The dramatic tension comes entirely from the dialogue. Although Richard Linklater is a severely chattering patient, his skill is really not...

    Movie quotes

    • Vin: She thinks I have violet tendencies.

      Jon: Oh, boy.

      Vin: Jon, I never touched her.

      Jon: I never said you did.

      Vin: well, she thinks I have, uh, "unresolved issues, which occasionally manifest themselves in potentially violet ways."

      Jon: [...] Women these days have no reason to hang around potentially violet guys. It's not an attractive quality anymore. Too many guys out there with "resolved" violet tendencies.

      Vin: Oh, so I'm out of fashion?

    • Jon: You don't like my work?

      Vin: I like it like I like a shot of whiskey first thing in the morning: it's good for about 10 minutes and then I want my coffee.

    • Amy: I have a boyfriend.

      Vince: Who is he?

      Amy: He's the District Attorney.

      Vince: Oh, God. That is so typical.

      Amy: Typical. Why?

      Vince: It just is.
