Lust, Caution
Surprisingly good. It was veryyyy long. nearly like a lord of the rings.
off course, it was the buzz of the sex scenes that got me reading up reviews on it.
and yes, it’s real explicit, i wouldn’t be surprised that it wasn’t simulated.
It’s fast and furious sex. hot. a bit sadistic like brokeback mountain. though it’s tame compared to this. lol
Then again, after reflecting, I can see why it was very essential. Doh. the title. lol.
Overall great acting. A wel known lead actor with a virtual unknown. I’m sure she’s now getting lots of calls for future movies.
I find the plot a bit silly though. Is it really that hard to kill one man? lol. Pour poison to a drink? freaking get a knife and kill him while doing it. ala basic instinct.
But ya, its really an exploration of deep desires, anger, uncontrolled emotions. raw passion.
oh, the subtleness of the scenes and non-verbal communication is striking too. The lipstick marks, the smoking, etc.
lust.betrayal.deception.
