'Irreversible' Stays Underneath

Ethan Switch - Wednesday, 31 March, 2004 - 16:03:27 - print it raw

Sensing that the furore over the controversial film, Irreversible, is pretty much over, the Classification Review Board upheld its previous rating of R18+. This will render the film, which features a near ten minute rape scene starring Monica Bellucci, naked on the sole front of previously generated publicity and an ever quietening hype flow.

Seeking to have the film banned to reap the spotlight and rushed cinema drive of such other luminaries as Ken Park and Baise-Moi, pocket groups were left wallowing in a tunnel of their own enthusiasm with no relative sense of time toward actions.

Considering submissions from likes of the Australian Family Association and distributor Accent Film Entertainment, the Classification Review Board noted that the claim was "out of time."

Where in Kentucky - Mammoth Cave National Park: Monstrously, and seemingly neverending, sitting under the home ground of Colonel Sanders, the world's largest cave system. Yucatan comes nowhere close. Not even Cocklebiddy poses a threat. No comparison. Small holes looking up at a big fat long one. Sadly, with possible age and lack of food, no minotaurs to be found within the lime walls.
Homebrew Diary - Wheatbeer of misery: If what can turn a foul mood around becomes the harbinger of the foul mood, what happens next? Turn it into a learning experience. And when that learning curve makes a late break over the plate, you'd better start to swing away.
Homebrew Diary - Blackrock IPA + Hops: It doesn't take a big man to admit that he drinks. It takes a big man to get wasted and perform impromptu sermons naked from a balcony; raving upon the ravages of the insanity of stata bylaws and noisy offspring in adjoining arpartments...
