Love the grainy, drone like quality of this film. The minimal
background music, that does not super impose itself on the moment and
lets the scene remain raw is beautiful..
It goes without saying, that the cinematography, which uses psychedelic
lights and supportive drone like sounds, leaves the mind feeling tippy.
I'm always looking for films like this where music and cinematic
expression do the talking instead of extensive dialogue..Enter the Void
does is a beautiful example of this possibility..
The plot of the film is simple. It unfolds over one night where a drug
deal goes real bad and is interlaced with scenes from the protagonists'
past which relates to current relationships and events..
Seeing the world through the protagonists view from when he is tippy to
when he is coy and asking strippers "Hey, You want to try these? Take
just one", or when he floating through the city of Tokyo has a certain
je ne sais quoi..
I love that they filmed this in Tokyo, Tokyo from the sky and Tokyo
from the street with club houses/ stripper bars are different
experiences.. There is one scene that remained ingrained, Oscar is at
Alex's house and his roommate has this model of Tokyo with neon lights,
its quite precious..
This movie certainly worth a watch for its endeavor in setting an
artistic high…
I'm on my way to see more from Gaspar Noe – Irreversible and I Stand
Alone are recommended as must watch..
