What movie should I rent?

sppunk · 12-05-2002, 11:51 PM

I want something along the lines of Happiness, Storytelling, Sidewalks of New York, etc. Something that's not neccessarily drama, but is obscure and thought provoking. And has great sex scenes but is not a porn! lol.

Recommend away.

That movie is so funny. "It's an ear cleaner!"

Anyway....Antonia's Line is a Dutch movie, it's excellent, and it has a fair amount of sex.

Last Tango in Paris

I ended up grabbing Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys. I never saw it when it came around to the Magnolia, so I figure I should get it now. They were out of the ones you guys mentioned, or didn't have them.

I've seen Gummo and Last Tango in Paris ... both great.
