Set in World War II Italy, displaying the great abuse of 4 powerful dictators, hiring minions to abduct innocent civilians for120 days of gruesome debauchery A highly controversial movie,which never fails to disturb movie goers everywhere.
A sublime adaption of infamous17th century writer Marques De Sade's 120 Days of Sodom,which still goes beyond what this film should show legally.
Four parts: 30 days of each stage.
1)"Antechamber of Hell"
2)"Circle of Obsessions"
3)"Circle of Shit"
4)"Circle of Blood"
Illegal in most countries due to excessive use of nudity, sex, and violence.The direction has very clinical approach, with all the scenes set in observation POV.. A technique which created an almost overbearing honesty with the camera at everyone at all times.
Most memorable scene:
The scene with the men and women crawling up the stairs like dogs, are leaded to the dictators in leashes, and it is visually shocking due to the dehumanization.
The President: [while eating a meal of feces] Carlo, do this with your fingers.
[the President sticks two fingers in his mouth]
The President: And say, "I can't eat rice with my fingers like this."
Male Victim: [with fingers in his mouth] I can't eat rice.
The President: Then eat shit.
Illegal in most countries due to excessive use of nudity, sex, and violence.
The direction has very clinical approach, with all the scenes set in observation P.O.View. A technique which created an almost overbearing honesty was the setting in the palace with royal red, contrasting with the nakedness of the bodies.
The bleakness of the character's chances to escape from the torture bestowed upon them makes the film more powerful.
