Photo: Sort of?  There’s no rape*, but there’s definitely violence - although it’s unclear whether he’s just being flat out abusive, or if he’s following the instructions in her letter.  Even if he is, though - there are enough moments where he’s clearly being a dick for his own pleasure, to villify him.  They’re both pretty much a mess.  I’d have turned it off halfway through if that wouldn’t have resulted in having to make another “what should we watch” decision. *Apparently there is, it was just kind of confusing.  To me, at least.

Photo: Movie Photos: Isabelle Huppert and Benoit Magimel in Kino’s The Piano Teacher (La Pianiste) - 2002 Watched this last night.  No recollection of why it was in my netflix instant queue.  We were pretty high, but I’m not sure sobriety would have lent any understanding to the movie.

Photo: hauntingthechapel: Also watched Event Horizon for the first time last night. Not completely what I expected but I liked the concept enough to forgive some of its blemishes. Really made me want to play Dead Space where we’re going you don’t need eyes

Photo: THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO So, this movie really weirded me out.  Movies with rape scenes are always fraught.  Movies with rape scenes that don’t significantly advance the plot are always questionable.  And then it gets really weird when the recently-raped character, avenged or not, is sexualized in a nude scene shortly after.  It draws a weird parallel between the rape and the sex, and it makes you wonder about the prettily-shot rape scene, and what it meant to the director. Also, action/thriller movies with female heroes that nonetheless fail the Bechdel test are a mess - it feels more sexist than if they’d just had a male lead. I think I need to read the book to unpack this one fully, but I’m not sure I want to.
