Review of House of Pleasures (2011) by J. Hoberman for Village Voice — 22 Nov 2011
The filmmaker gives full vent to his romanticism by staging an End of the Epoch party, with tearful sex workers dancing to "Nights in White Satin," then steps on the mood with yet another farewell fête, commemorating Bastille Day.
The prisoners are free - to walk the streets. Ironic, no?
