81. Ecstasy of the angels (1972)


Country: Japan
Directed by Koji Wakamatsu

Without doubt this film is a bit of disturbing, as is pretentious and exploitative. However, you can't deny that is optical beautiful, provocative and powerful, ambiguous politically with a way that is interesting. Much better movies passed in front of my eyes but I recall them in my mind fewer times than 'The ecstasy of the angels'. Sex and violence , sperm and blood just for the sake of the tickets: but in the same time , with a very small budget , the director manages to produce something close to art cinema
