La luna (1979)
Bertolucci & Claburgh w/o a plot
The movie starts out a bit interested with the son interested in a teenage girl his own age. Clayburgh's timid-appearing husband is killed in car crash as she is getting ready to go to Rome and sing as a diva. Matthew objects but comes along. He connects with the young girl again but this time, Matt is on cocaine. His superb voice, lovely, impetuous mother is in the limelight. She doesn't know how to handle Matt's addiction. The movie drags on in search of a plot. Clayburgh is in the wrong role and Bertolucci may have had his head in the moon while directing the picture. The Moon has great symbolism.
Save your time. I am perhaps overly generous with 4*.
Mirror Images II (1993)
Lovely Twins Deceive Men in Bedroom & Themselves Too
Here, as in Mirror Images there are two identical twins. However, after reading the review for Mirror Images, I find II to be much better. For one, there is Sharron Wirrly. She is worth the high price that this VHS is now bringing, albeit possibly it is also on VCD. The main man is an unknown rough lying piece of scum with a badge. The other protagonist is a nice guy private-eye. One thinks the other is dead so she goes on her separate life. Scum knows both are alive. Many steamy sexual situations. Wirrly gives Tweed physical competition and also Severance although being blond.
For those who like complex UR films that earn the rating often, this is an enjoyable movie. Not on the order of Tweed or Severance films but Wirrly is well worth the price and time.
