I saw it yesterday at a FF, ask me anything (SPOILERS)

Nude?? Yes. They all are!!! Juno Temple is naked for 50% of her role I think. BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL women, really!!

Funniest Bit??? Whoa, I really don't want to spoil anything BUT the dialogue is brilliant!! The crowd laughed every 10 seconds (and so did I), trust me, it's brilliant and funny stuff, and hard to take one out of it. However, the last 10 minutes brought tears to me eyes it was that funny!! Seriously!!
Oh, as for characters, Thor had me laughing the most. He's just what you imagine a Thor to be in a Gregg Araki movie!! And Stella has the best bad-ass-lines.

Ending?? No spoilers, but it ends as it should. ;)

Sci-Fi... Umh, I'd say maybe 2.5. I don't really know where the Sci-Fi came from on imdb, really...

Sex for Dekker: Trust me, a lot.

Soundtrack... REALLY amazing!! On top of my head, Explosions in the Sky was the most obvious, there's a Slowdive reference (as always), and TO FIX THE GASH IN YOUR HEAD and BITTER END are used remarkably. Guess by which bands... ;) Loads of Shoegaze stuff I can't really remember, but I think I heard Pale Saints and Cocteau Twins for sure...

I talked to my best friend afterwards and she and I came to the conclusion the film could be summed up as "Your average over-the-top-WTF-porno-without-porno-scenes-but-sex-scenes-though". So there... XD

Enter the Void IS superb!! I also saw RUBBER; SILENT HOUSE; MONSTERS; SYMBOL; HARRY BROWN; CHATROOM... so many highlights, even though CHATROOM was flawed as the next flawed thing...... and many, MANY surprising films nobody hyped yet (The Wild Hunt, The Loved Ones, Amer).

OH; and I just read that James Duvall is "the pothead character" Messiah... which is funny, I would have never recognized him. He's dressed up like your generic cliché jamaican. XD

Hi there,

Well, let me phrase it this way: the film does make a lot of fun of sexuality. Every kind of sexuality. So it's not really a film where you can ask if somebody is gay or straight or bi - they pretty much do what they get, and there are many black-humor-jokes about being hetero AND about being gay. I remember reading somewhere that Araki was dissed by some gay spokespersons when he was in a relationship with one of his recurring actresses, and I felt as if the film truly was a nod towards sexual extremists, saying "Hey look, sexuality is sexuality, you can't put us into any drawer or apply any name. We do as we feel and sleep with who we like and find sexy." So whether you are straight or gay - if you are easily offended by jokes about your sexual orientation, this is not the film to see.

BUT, funny enough, I think apart from some side characters, they are all bi. Most of them have sex with whatever they can get or mention they are "somewhere in between". There's also a threesome scene with two men and a woman. The most memorable sex scene though has to be between Smith and a girl (not spoiling who though). So if I had to apply a tag to the movie, it would be "queer cinema" - but not even because of the bi-sexual overtones, but because the film itself, the way it is made and its intentions, can't be described as anything but "queer".

That said, let me quote the film here, in a scene where Smith's sexuality is discussed by him and Stella, his best friend (quote might be wrong due to my memory).

Smith: I'm NOT gay.
Stella: You're sucking off guys dicks to Lady Gaga playing in the background. There's nothing gayer than that.


EDIT: Oh, as for graphic... it's Gregg Araki. So if you watch NOWHERE, you'll get how graphic this is, both are on the same scale to me when it comes to graphicness.

I'm really surprised BTW that "Lorelai" was Roxane Mesquida!! She's also starring in the amazing RUBBER, and she was gorgeous in the quite flawed FAT GIRL (and guess what, she also has a bunch of sex scenes and shows it all etc. here). Great great actress, and a brilliant role!! Lorelei kicks SO much ass...

The festival ended yesterday by the way, and I talked to many more who saw KABOOM! as one of the absolute highlights (though there were many).

any frontals from Thor?

Any answer to this, I would love to know too. Thanks

Sorry, being busy the last few weeks. :)

"Do we get full frontal of Dekker. I saw the clip released but it was from far away. To we get a closer look."

Uuuuuuuuh... I think not, though since I'm not into naked guys, I might have missed that. :/ Maybe there was, but not that I can remember (apart from the opening shot). Sorry. :(

"Do we see any Dekker on screen guy on guy?"

OH! YES!
