Review of Gorilla Bathes at Noon (1993) by Zoran S — 03 Dec 2009
An odd little movie- odd even for Dusan Makavejev (and this guy did WR Mysteries of the Organism!)- but it has its moments. Most affecting is seeing the tearing down of a Lenin statue in Berlin inter-cut with footage from 1945 of Berliners winning the war.
Some of it works, some not - it's the only movie I'll ever see where the main character spends time making out with a female Lenin dressed in a beard and then later on helps to pick out the bullet that's in the female-Lenin's brain.
A shame it isn't always this weird though, and maybe a little dull too.
