(aka "The Tit and the Moon" )
directed
by Bigas Luna
Spain 1994
Bigas Luna is obsessed with sex; at least so it seems when
one looks at his body of work, most famous “Jamón, jamón” from 1992. I’ve only
seen some of his films, and I must admit, I have never had any thoughts about
them. Many Spanish films screened at our cinemas in the early nineties was
obsessed with sex, not in an Almodovar kind of sense, but more in a Russ
Meyerish it-is-naughty-thus-its-fun kind of sense, and even the most ordinary
problems in life were rooted in sex.
But I have to admit, I enjoyed “La Teta y la luna”. A lot. It is so
unadulterated and surreal, so upfront in its declaration of love to the tit,
the female breast and to the milk of life. Completely perverted, totally
surreal, but irresistible charming.
Tete is a nine-year old boy, who when his mother gives birth to his little
brother and subsequently breastfeeds him, develops an obsession for breasts
and breast milk, begging the moon to give him a breast of his own to feed
upon.
The story never really turns solid, or for that matter into anything with an
idea. It acts like a coming-of-age comedy, with added love triangle romantic
comedy , but in the end, it really is a rather pointless and silly excuse for
showing a lot of naked breasts. But even so, it is done with so much love and
attitude, that I had to give in and enjoy this surreal fantasy.

| Comments | Additional
to very visible compression artifacts, especially edge enhancement and
macro blocking, the details are weak, almost as if focus isn't sharp
enough, and both combing and ghosting is present. A decent, but not really
good transfer. Sound is only 2.0 Dolby Digital, which makes me wonder, if this is a true Tartan or a port of another DVD. A brief interview, even though 4 minutes hardly can be called an interview, and the trailer and that's it. |
