Review of Sweet Movie (1974) by Y'ng Y — 21 Jan 2008
Anti-bourgeois plus some bizarre provocations , involving Otto Muehl's (my LEAST favourite of the Vienna Aktionists) commune spitting and smearing food on each other, regurgitating food, drinking piss and defecating onto dinner plates; a sex and bloody murder scene in a giant tub of sugar, and an older woman seducing some little boys in a candy 'store' to the sound of church music.
Rather than feeling liberated, a lot of the scenes come across as silly.
