Is this film underestimated?

Don't think that Tony played by Freud has Freud's Oedipus plot! I feel that he loves his father very much, but his father is not satisfied with him. After his father hurt his mother and alienated the mother and child, Tony has regarded his father as a spiritual sustenance in his letter! It seems that the father communicates with himself again and again, and bears the pressure and desires of the mother, and the mother Barbara’s family seems to have a history of mental illness, right? I think this is a neglected point, as if Tony said in the film narration that his mother's father and grandfather or grandfather had committed suicide? Or am I understanding it wrong? Anyway, Tony's abnormality can never be summed up by homosexuals alone. Sexuality is not a big problem. The problem is that Tony's spirit has gone wrong early! Barbara's arrogance and her husband must be contrary to each other, the beginning of the tragedy! Barbara’s feminism is affirmative, it’s true that she ruined Tony, and the end of the film makes me think it’s an adaptation of a real-life event? What do you think? In short, this film is underestimated. There are no dirty clips and no pornographic points. I think it is very literary, depressive, and sexually cold! I also think this film can dig deeper into the level of human chaos and mental confusion!

Savage Grace quotes

  • Barbara Baekeland: That is actually true; give him a dirt road, and he'll go up it...

  • Barbara Baekeland: Monsieur Souvestre, permettez-moi de vous presenter mons fils, Tony.

    Barbara Baekeland: [excitedly, to Brooks] Did I get it right? Did I get the order right?

    Brooks Baekeland: [coldly] The younger is presented to the older, the less distinguished to the more so; the exception to the rule: the gentleman is always presented to the lady; the exception to the exception, unless the man is a President, a cardinal, or a reigning sovereign.
