Late this afternoon we saw this beautifully made film at the Violet Crown. While it has an NC 17 rating it is not due to hard core sex, but rather frontal nudity. This is a film about a brother and sister's pain and how they have developed behaviors to cope with their pain. Michael Fassbender plays the sex addict and Carey Mulligan, the cutter. They both are on a mission to self destruct to cope with some dark past experience in their lives. Hats off to Steve McQueen, director of this beautifully shot film in New York. This is a painful movie, visually appealing and enhanced by a wonderful score. Go see it but don't expect to leave untouched.
Toward the end of the film two young men left to replenish their beers and as the film came to a conclusion four drinks from different viewers were then spilled with glasses broken as well. All accidents? Abe didn't see a connection. I certainly did!!!
Your recommendation will make me go, and this was not on my must see list!
