it took more than 100 years, but someone finally figured out the perfect way to end a movie.
Girl just wanted to have sex with her man and I just wanted to have a better movie
Radu Jude’s latest is a playful yet biting piece of social satire. It’s a film that grapples with the mess of hypocrisies and contradictory morals of contemporary culture, with Jude exploring this in a wonderfully absurd but incredibly thoughtful manner. It’s definitely a strange endeavor with all of its meta, near-unhinged moments of obscenity, but it’s undoubtedly unlike anything out there. Plus, that ending might take the crown for the best and most bonkers ending of the entire year. Just, wow.
To open your film with an unsimulated sex scene is incredibly bold and insane. Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn recently won the Golden Bear at the 2021 Berlin International Film Festival. I’m not entirely familiar with this director’s work nor the Romanian New Wave movement. This was a wild ride to uncover. The first part of the film is about a teacher who is caught up with a sex tape scandal. We follow her through the streets of Bucharest, Romania. The cinematography is free-formed and relaxed. The direction in the first section is entirely following the main character as she slowly looses her mind. I can compare the first section like the film Two Days, One Night. Did I…

In one word it's ball-bustingly phenomenal satire about everything what's going on and has been going on in the society since the creation of humanity, boldly raises questions against all those hypocrisy and obligated prejudice available in form of some kind of viles which just changes it's shape and size culture wise throughout the world. It's possible that u mayn't find even any mere development into a whole country's scenario, but it's for sure those irrelevant social prejudice along with multiple superstitious beliefs must be present in everywhere. But Jude is brilliant in terms of creating a satire which can not be even possible to define by any specific definition of filmmaking under any specific genre, moreover in…
Review by Eric Kohn
The brilliance of “Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn,” Romanian director Radu Jude’s astonishing Berlinale Golden Bear-winning satire, comes from a most unusual combination by jamming together two very different kind of movies that shouldn’t work in harmony, but end up making perfect sense. The filmmaker’s bold approach suggests what might happen if someone spliced a late-period Jean-Luc Godard essay film into the middle of “The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie,” with such mesmerizing results that you just have to roll with it. One of European cinema’s most unclassifiable auteurs has delivered the bitter pill we deserve.
Berlinale 2021 film #6
full madness! the first few minutes are NSFW at its highest form. a biting, often hilarious and candid, look at prejudice and social hypocrisy put on women in the society. radu jude juggles many genres and yet somehow hits all the right notes with flying colors. will not forget this easily.
Miguel Gomes goes to Romania in all the worst ways. I like most of Jude movies I've seen and I wish he had an arthouse breakthrough with something more interesting than this condecending conceptual comedy, The provocations are shallow and the whole thing feels half formed and smug even if a few of the jokes do land.
Eat my cunt.
Words fail me. I want to summarize this as Bizarro World Cléo from 5 to 7, a slice-of-life set in a Blade Runner-type dystopia. Alas the world of this film isn't fictional 2017 Los Angeles, but the all too real hellscape of the 2020s. The lingering camera captures all the various details of modern Romania, and eventually the narrative gives way to something like a documentary portrait of the country's tumultuous contemporary history, wedged inside its black comedy story. During the runtime I thought of both Chris Marker and Abbas Kiarostami. Those are lofty comparisons, especially for a movie so raunchy, but the unique blending of fact and fiction bears all the requisite hallmarks.
Laced with all…
