Poison~Todd Haynes
A triptych of interweaving stories on transgression and alienation. Ambitious to the point of being overdone, outrageous at times, alternatively beautiful and ugly, the film cuts between the three films spinning a web of unsettling correlations, and disturbed musings. Cerebral, horrific, homoerotic and silly, all at the same time. There are quite a few very uncomfortable scenes. Inspired by the writings of Jean Genet, at the very least it's worth a watch for the novelty/originality. 7/10
