A Turkish Bath sequence in a film noir located in New York in the 50's, that must be a hint at something! Something that curiously, in all the previous comments, no one has pointed out, but seems to me essential to the understanding of this movie <br /><br />the Turkish Baths sequence: a back street at night, the entrance of a sleazy sauna, and Scalise wrapped in a sheet, getting his thighs massaged with the towel. <BR /></br><BR />The Turkish bath sequence is a great example of the Turkish style of film-making, with a lot of great shots of Turkish women, but also a few shots where the women are naked, or in some cases naked in front of their husbands. The women in Turkish baths are very beautiful and very sexy, especially in this scene, which is the most erotic scene in Turkey, where they are in their bathtub. This scene is also very erotic in its own way, as it is very close to a scene of sex between the two women. It is not a very good scene for Turkish film lovers, because it has a bit of nudity, too, although it does not have much sex scenes. But it's a good movie, for it shows the beauty of Turkey and the great Turkish culture, so that it can be enjoyed by all. I recommend it to all Turkish Film lovers. If you are a Turkish filmmaker, I suggest you to watch this film, if you want to see Turkish films in your own country. You will be amazed at the amazing Turkish cinema, even if your country doesn't have a cinema. And if it doesn´t have one, you will enjoy it. Turkish Cinema: Istanbul:
A Turkish Bath sequence in a film noir located in New York in the 50's, that must be a hint at something! Something that curiously, in all the previous comments, no one has pointed out, but seems to me essential to the understanding of this movie <br /><br />the Turkish Baths sequence: a back street at night, the entrance of a sleazy sauna, and Scalise wrapped in a sheet, getting his thighs massaged and his head shaved off. <BR /></br><BR />The Turkish bath sequence is also a clue to what is going on in this film, but it is not a very good one. The Turkish baths sequence, which is very well done, is a bit of an oddity. It is quite a strange scene, with a lot of nudity, especially in one of the scenes where Scalis is being held by the Turkish woman, who is in her bathrobe. But it does not detract from the film. I think that the scene where the woman is holding Scalises head is the most interesting part of it. And the bath scene is really interesting, because it shows the way the two women are being treated by Scalised.<br/>< br />I think the director is trying to make a point about the fact that this is an interesting film and not just a Turkish film.< br />I would like to see a better Turkish movie, if it was made in Turkey. If it were made here, I would be very happy. This is one that I have seen many times, so I hope that people will see it again.<br -< br -><divider><b />1/10 - 1/2 - 2/3 -
