#Stoker, 2013, #DirectedBy #ParkChanwook (#Oldboy) and starring #MiaWasikowska, #MatthewGoode, and #NicoleKidman, is an interesting twist on the #horror / #thriller genre and, to paraphrase #Madisynn, "it's not what you thiiiink".

Some of the style choices don't work for me, especially at the start of the #movie, but others are very well done and add to the mystery and eerie tone.

The #eroticism is palpable and often veers into inappropriate, but that's key to the plot.

3.8 of 5 stars. #Hulu

#Tampopo is a #weird, #hungry, #funny, #horny, #kinkyish #celebration of #food and #carnal, #primal, #pleasures.

It's all over the place but its sense of innocence, even with the #eroticism in which it indulges a bit, maintains throughout and keeps things light and fun.

The ending really, really, really emphasizes the most fundamental theme of the whole #movie.

I laughed at the many silly moments; it's clear this was a fun #film shoot.

Don't watch while hungry 😂

Diving back into a (slow, inept) parallel reading of the "The Pleasure of the Text" and «Le Plaisir du texte», we come to and let pass unnoticed various sentences which are rather delightful if not obviously true (or obviously not true), and note only

«L'endroit le plus érotique d'un corps n'est-il pas là où le vêtement bâille?»

The most erotic place on a body, is it not where the clothing gapes?

That gets no counterargument from me. :)

Followed immediately by the suggestion that «la perversion» is «le régime du plaisir textuel». Perversion is the realm of textual pleasure?

Some of us would like to think so. But are we really that edgy? 🤔

Ah, this is fun: «au moment où il jouit» might, given the context, go into English as "at the moment that he comes" (or even "cums"); the French verb «jouir» is ambiguous between "enjoy" and "orgasm" just as the English "to come" is ambiguous between "move towards" and "orgasm".

Google translate primly renders it as "enjoys"; Miller spells it out again, as "at the very moment of his orgasm, his bliss".

In fact this edition has a small "Note on the Text" all about how French, unlike English, has words for the erotic that are neither, as he puts it, coarse nor clinical. How educational!
