Baise-moi
Directed by Virginie Despentes, Coralie Trinh Thi
Nadine and Manu are two mad women, as tidy as can be, almost perfectionists. They have several things in common: extreme sex, drugs, beer and the trigger. They find the solution to their problems with guns and beware to those who dare to get in their way! From TMDB

22 of 22 · most liked firstI think what changed was that with the internet, everything became easier to access. For example, I got hold of the movie Cradle of Fear which had been banned in Ireland by ordering a VHS copy directly from the director's website. It wasn't very good though. Likewise, got a copy of Baise Moi

Loved the weird, sweaty, pulpy, grimy feel of this! Also made me miss the gym. Thelma & Louise meets Baise-Moi, with guns, muscles and gore. #filmsky

And for a much worse one (whose politics are all over the place), Baise-Moi by Virginie Despentes.

neutral · AI labelView post →See, I liked Southland Tales, too. But, for me, and I've seen some pretty strange theatre releases: Baise-Moi (2000): It was banned, for glaringly obvious reasons. But, the theatre got an injunction and we went to one of the only showings. Happiness (1998): Todd Solondz makes everything awkward. The Cell (2000): Tarsem's Jennifer Lopez starring sci-fi mind trip. House of 1000 Corpses: Rob Zombie. I'm not a horror-movie person, yet, somehow, I saw this. 하녀 (The Housemaid, 2010): one of…

neutral · AI labelView post →If you want to have a reason why you should listen to my podcast, it's cause my brain is cooked enough that I can reference Andrea Dworkin, Baise-Moi and the Sisters of Dorley all in a discussion about a Ridley Scott film. Wait that's not a selling point.
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm watching BAISE-MOI and it feels surprisingly like the explicit expression of a 1950s Bad Girl film!
positive · AI labelView post →Weirdly, I often think about how ignored BAISE-MOI has been since its release. Rarely talked about, despite it being a revolutionary feminist film. Pushed aside in favour of more male dominated genre fare www.bbc.com/culture/arti...
neutral · AI labelView post →Is Baise-Moi (2000) worth watching? Is it toward the MARTYRS/INSIDE/CALVAIRE pole of extreme horror with depth? Or the SERBIAN FILM/AUGUST UNDERGROUND pole of boredom?

We chatted on a forum a couple of decades ago (actually more, and I don’t remember which one) about a woman who carved phalluses out of potatoes and the film “Baise-Moi” which I’d just seen. I

neutral · AI labelView post →Watched the infamous French film BAISE-MOI last night. It was a nasty little movie that was nevertheless engrossing. It's very angry but there's a sincerity to its anger that stops it from being exploitative. I recommend it but be warned, it's a doozy.
positive · AI labelView post →Been diving back into the New French Extremity. Watched Sombre, which only has the redeeming quality of being very literally dark. And Baise-Moi, which is really not good at all until the ending, the ending is great. The rest of the film is garbage.

BAISE-MOI is a French film about 2 women who decide they are tired of the world using & demeaning them. They then take matters into their own hands open.substack.com/pub/jeffreyu...

neutral · AI labelView post →Baise-Moi is, frankly, dreadful. Years ago, I had a flatmate who was obsessed with it—I’ve never understood why. Even setting aside the sex and violence, what remains is a shoddy mess: it looks and sounds like an early 2000s daytime soap, complete with a dreadful soundtrack and incidental music and performances that barely convince. The direction is apathetic at best. I watched it on an old DVD still bearing the BBFC’s cuts, so perhaps the visuals suffered there—but even Arrow’s restoration…
