Review of Medusa: Dare to Be Truthful (1991) by Kilian Z — 18 Apr 2010

Here it is a movie which can divide clearly the Madonna fans, some would hate or even say it is a sacrilege (some of us are quite hysteric ... but hopefully I'm not Kabbalist) others would say it is a tribute.

The first 10 - 15 min were fantastic, I was wondering if it is the new Woody Allen's "Every Thing You Always Wanted to Know About Sex * But Were Afraid to Ask " with this orgasmic quote "You don't understand.

If I use a smaller penis it would be compromising my artistic integrity". After, it looks she pushed already opened door as Madonna is quite known to be experienced regarding sex For me, she exaggerated, I mean this is too big to be laughable (watermelon scene.

..) but I wonder if J Brown took this path because the book "SEX" was released during the same year. As J.B. wanted to challenge Madonna: oki let's talk about sex (haaa SALT 'N' PEPA).

I'm not sure how to appreciate the dog cemetery scene, i'm quite divided and even skeptical... as I was for the original scene, it is a quite personal moment, always the same debate: to show or not to show, but after all this is the Madonna's responsibility.

In the other way, Medusa character is well found because Madonna is everything but certainly not a sweet cat. It is definitely a good moment with plenty of well found jokes & this is a tribute.
