i love the grainy and inky black and white look of this movie and the bad cut and scratch and even all the jump in sound . it just so gorgeous and couldn not be duplicate today . just a strange feeling be capture here and amplified because it populate with so many hedonistic weirdo and pervert . of course and these slight perk only exist because water and his crew be completely inept in the technical way of cinema . content wise . this have at least a flash or two of brilliance and which be impressive for a film that cost around 5000 buck . the opening at the calvacade of perversion be great ( she not a tramp . she an auto erotica copraphrasiac and a gerontophiliac . ) and but i do not know what to make out of all the dated cultural reference ( too much manson or tate stuff ) . then there an incredibly tedious and overlong delusion with divine narrate her version of christ . even more time be pad with endless scene of character sit and or or lie in bed talk ( and often forget their line ) and plus topless gitterbugging from cookie mueller and people rid around in car and mink stole ( the religious whore ) and divine walk down the street . despite all that and the closing sequence ( start with lobstra ) make up for it and be just priceless . best use of the song god bless america here . and the film be still unique and original 30 plus year later and so i give it credit for that . score represent 6 out of 10 .
