[REL] Tomato Ketchup Kotei (1970)
Re: [REL] Tomato Ketchup Kotei (1970)
Geeze, Louise....
This is one of those movies you gotta kinda tip-toe around... It SEVERLY pushes the envelope between 'ART' and 'CP'...
People got up in arms with Dusan Makavejev and 'Sweet Movie' when he had a lady doing a strip-tease in front of a group of boys; at times placing her bare cr*tch up to one of their faces.
THIS movie has a couple of MUCH more questionable scenes!
From what I know of OTHER movies that are banned, I would say that THIS movie should NOT be downloaded by people from Canada or the UK.
Hell, I'm a little nervous about it HERE in the USA...
Although it is by far NOT the STRANGEST movie I have ever seen. If you want WEIRD, check out David Lynch's early shorts, or anything by Alejandro Jodorowsky, Guy Maddin or other 'avant-garde' directors of their ilk.
THIS 'strangeness' just has young boys in VERY questionable situations; had they been young GIRLS with older MEN in the SAME situations, I think there would have been NO QUESTION that this would have been labled 'CP' across the board! It's a shame, really...
Still, after viewing this movie, I felt that a warning should be added to this thread; the ice it treads across is THAT thin!!
kev.

Poet, playright, theatre director, filmmaker, essayist, agitator and lover of all things anarchistic, chaotic, and truthful, SHUJI TERAYAMA (1936-1983) is one of Japan?s most revered and respected artists. In the heady and extremist Japanese art scene of the late 70s, Terayama created a number of unforgettable and highly controversial films. EMPEROR TOMATO KETCHUP is his epic, sexually revolutionary and hallucinatory work from 1972 in which "magical women act as the initiatory, yet protectively maternal sexual partners to children. The children, in revolt, have condemned their parents to death for depriving them of self-expression and sexual freedom; they create a society in which fairies and sex education are equally important and literally combinable." (Amos Vogel, Film as a Subversive Art). Featuring decadent, playful and disturbing episodes which seem to be drawn from the theatrical improvisations of Terayama's "troupe", EMPEROR TOMATO KETCHUP is a strange and breathtaking exploration of taboo and self-determination.
