And so, my Tarantino Marathon continues! Today it was Reservoir Dogs' turn, now my favourite one out of the bunch. I was a bit surprised too, as it wasn't that much violent as they had told me it was. O_o Obviously, there were some pretty violent scenes (and having Tim Roth lying around in a pool of blood all the movie didn't help), but they were never over the top, or pulp. Also the (in)famous ear scene didn't look that much of shocking to me. If I had to choose, I would pick Soldier Blue's leg scene (remember the massacre? and what the soldiers do to the little girl? That's it!) as the most shocking torture scene ever pictured! *shudders*

I loved how all the movie looked like a theatrical play, all set in the same room, leaving to the (fabolous) cast to tell what happened, and giving us all those marvellously-written dialogues! I also liked how, in a movie where the main characters are named after colours, they chose very few colours for the cinematography: black, white, shades of grey, and obviously red.

And my favourite reservoir dog? Mr Orange! I know, I'm predictable... :P I will buy the dvd for sure, but first I have to know which edition contains the censured version (they usually air on tv a version without the torture scene, they're stupid that way), because I want the original un-cut version! ^^

I made a bunch of icons out of that scene with Mr Orange and Malvin Nash, and this one *points* is my favourite one, so I put it as deafult icon. And nooooo, I'm not going on a fangirlish embarassing paragraph about Tim Roth, not me... *gets shot*

Beh sì, è un film bellissimo, il classico cult da vedere, solo che non dormirai bene la notte. Per due ore di film ti cullano nella falsa idea di star vedendo il classico film romantico anni 60 ambientato tra i monti e poi ti schiaffano il Sand Creek. In rapida successione abbiamo una scena di stupro incredibilmente dettagliata, bambini con arti mozzati, donne nude appese per i polsi col sangue che gli cola su tutto il corpo, teste decapitate e arti mozzati di bambini che rotolano, tutto con un'aria quasi documentaristica, che lo rende ancora più sconvolgente. Non a caso hanno messo un avviso all'inizio del film per malati di cuore e persone deboli di stomaco.

Altro che Tarantino, porello!

Una sola, volgare parola: minchia! alla faccia dello scontro della casa delle foglie blu!

Sè, quella è una passeggiata! ;)

Il mio commento alla fine del film fu "Porca Zozza!", quindi siamo lì...
