Oedipus Rex (Pier Paolo Pasolini- 1967): Thpughtfull, rather sordid look into the previously discussed taboo subject, dealing with it quite nicely and not turning it into some analogue for rape. Rather creepy at times and I certainly didn't feel clean coming out of it, but I did feel the story was accomplashing and a good retelling of the well known myth/ quasi-historical event.
The MoC BD is stunning and I highly reccomend it, but those words are spread about often enough to not garner any real persuasion.
Next? The Last Stand at the cinemas tomorrow. Should be fun if nothing else. Might watch Femina Ridens at the weekend.
