We hear him say "you can be clostraphobic and agoraphobic all at the same time, much like the bedroom." Secondly, and most important, the live music is inconsequential, although good. Although it is an interesting metaphor and a captivating landscape, it seems almost entirely unnecessary. We are reliving the story in memory via the male lead as he travels through Antarctica. Take a chance and open yourself up to something that is so revolutionary in its unedited reality. You have to get rid of your hypocritical view that will force you to jump in the bed with someone but then think it's nasty or shocking to see two people naked up on a screen. It's a chunk of reality without ever-present film commentary. Realize there's something more than what the biased cinema has given us before. I think to appreciate the film you need to get past what cinema has demanded we get from films about love and sex. Why should you remember that? because it happens to all of us and cinema has failed to show it to us correctly. The film isn't a commentary on their relationship or love or happiness, it lets you experience that little tryst you had a couple years ago that was fun for awhile and then you moved on. This film wants to show you that sometimes sex isn't romantic or ugly it just is simple and basic. why are people constantly in vapid sexual relationships even though they are searching for love? because that's real and sometimes all that you can get or what you're willing to try for. To the repressed repressing people I say: Get used to it! Learn to love it! ĭo i need to see this'. Anyway, one local repressed-culture-advocating newspaper in Salt Lake referred to this film as a type of "porn." I would say that it's not, any more than getting up in the morning and taking a shower, or seeing yourself naked in the mirror, or even your masturbating or having sex is "porn." A far better term is life! Sex is part of life. But the couple is young, and 20 something young adults rightly play the field, and that's good. In "9 Songs" one type of sex is shown - the type where the female prefers that the male leave his condom on long term. I think we need more portrayals of true human sexuality. I commend the film makers for trying to portray sex the way it is - in a way far better than the fakey nonsense of Hollywood, and in a better way than the fakey nonsense of the crass forms of "porn." I know that porn was a term created by people who didn't like the wall paintings at Pompeii, and I think that non-fakey non-coercive "porn" is highly useful, but fakey porn which has moans and other accouterments which are fake isn't useful. Salt Lake City is as of today 12 August 05 one of the places which is showing this film in the US.
