Review of Bitter Moon (1992) by Eric Henderson for Slant Magazine — 10 Jun 2003
As easy as it would be to make rude connections between the film’s raunchy shenanigans and Polanski’s own history, the fact is that Bitter Moon doesn’t feel like either an explanation, an apology, nor a defense of the kinky sexual games adults play.
Think of it as Polanski’s Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf.
