...I am not going to rush and add it to my queue - Tarr's films are somewhat of a torture to me. I physically suffer through them. It is something I am not exactly looking to repeat. After the WS I said to myself to give it a break... it is way too bleak and dehumanizing, the pain is too real. The term depressing is over-used, but it fits here like a glove. The hospital destruction scene left me physically ill, and I am not sure when I would want to see it again - on my most happy days, to tame my silly happines just a bit, or on my darkest ones... to make me feel better?Powerful potion, Tarr's films...
