Directed by Vilgot Sjöman
1967 Drama
Not Rated
1/2 star
Sjöman's controversial I Am Curious (Yellow) was banned for a long time in the United States, due to the excessive amount of nudity and for being the first film to show sexual intercourse on-screen. Too bad that ban didn't last. This is one of the most boring, self-indulgent, vapid, mightier-than-thou, and pathetic attempts to be "edgy" I have ever seen. The fact that I was able to sit through two hours of this (and then nearly two more with the "sequel") is a testament to how much I love film, I think. The only way I could recommend this is if you are trying to watch every Criterion release. Otherwise, stay as far away as possible.
