Gainsbourg. Appallingly ugly, wretchedly emaciated. A walking, breathing, human copy of Olive Oyl.
The film has gotten (The New Yorker) interesting reviews. I suppose, with all the graphic violence commonly featured in film these days, we could have foreseen this frontal (harrumph!) assault on what little remains of sexual mores. Myself, I'd settle for watching what many have named the greatest film of all time, though if so it's definitely the least seen of all contenders, "La Mere et La Putain," by Jean Eustache.
