kahunaburger

I’m on a mission to grab random Cannes Movie Festival winners (and nominees) from Netflix. A week ago “Irreversible” hit the top of the queue and was sent to me. I had picked for the previously stated reason as well as the fact that Monica Belluci starred in it.

I’ve switched off movies in the past: too boring, too stupid, etc., but I’ve never switched off a movie because I was grossed out by it. Irreversible did it for me. For those who’ve seen the movie as well: I could not finish the scene in the dimly lit, reddish underpass – had to hit the stop-button on the remote half way through it. And for those who have not seen: unless you are into extremely violent, long-drawn scenes of forceful female abuse (don’t want to get kahunaburger banned), do yourself a favor and don’t watch it.

Makes me think twice about my Cannes Festival quest mentioned above …
