Ode to Lionel Soukaz
mrdonleone13 October 2022
It's hard to appreciate this. Just two guys stripping, dancing and making love on the world's most beautiful musical songs, thereby turning everything queer and in/while doing so perverting the whole art of modern cinema as we know it. I mean, there used to be a time in which these things were considered as shocking. One would like to disagree with such a statement for everything nis already available and visible on the screens nowadays; still it is hard not to appreciate the great guts film maker Lionel Soukaz must have had to make this film at the time on which it appeared. Turn it from whichever angle you want to, but it's art. One does not need to agree with everything one sees. Cinema is meant to shock. In a way, of course. On the other hand, cinema is still pretty much too conditional against real freedom. Short marvels as this remind us just where we came from, that we don't have to agree with everything still to be able to appreciate the living and call it free. Thank you, Lionel Soukaz. In a way.
