Horrified Viewers Flee Antonio Banderas' New Flick Due to Extreme Sex, Violence Scenes (http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2011/05/20/fox-411-cannes-horrified-viewers-flee-antonio-banderas-new-flick-extreme-sex/)
Spanish director Pedro Almodovar's latest thriller, "The Skin I Live In," had filmgoers fleeing the theater Thursday night at its gala premiere at the Cannes Film Festival, due to some aggressively violent and disturbing content.
The film, which stars Antonio Banderas and budding actress Spanish actress Elena Anaya, focuses on a mad but brilliant surgeon (Banderas) who kidnaps a man who raped his daughter.
The doctor's daughter killed herself from the grief and it drives him to take very drastic measures. This is where it gets complicated and disturbing.
Banderas then gives the rapist a sex change and transplants his deceased daughter's face onto his body.
He later has sex with the man he has brutally experimented on and turned into a woman.
The movie also contained several disturbing rape scenes and nudity.
Guests, among them a group of sweepstakes winners flown specially to Cannes by Stella Artois from the U.S. to enjoy a once in a lifetime movie premiere were horrified by the experience. That group of Americans left and did not come back to the theater following a partiularly violent rape scene in the middle of the film.
A second exodus occurred when Banderas' character had relations with his victim at the end of the film, when even some of the French, who have a reputation for a higher tolerance for disturbing themes than Americans, had had enough.
"It was the fact that the victim was supposed to look like the doctor's daughter. I couldn't stop picturing the girl in the beginning of the movie when he was in bed with her, with him, later," said filmgoer Marie-Elise Martin who left three-quarters of the way through the picture.
The latest from the Spanish director is based on a French novel, "Tarantula," and the hometown crowd for the most part (the ones who stayed in the theater) did give Almodovar a five minute standing ovation for the adaptation.
Critics have also fallen in love with the upsetting film and are placing it in contention for the highest Cannes honor, the Palme d'or.

This isn't your normal hollyweird... This is Cannes Film Festival where independent film producers show their garbage... These are not big-studio productions...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannes_film_festival
The festival has become an important showcase for European films. Jill Forbes and Sarah Street argue in European Cinema: An Introduction, that Cannes "became...extremely important for critical and commercial interests and for European attempts to sell films on the basis of their artistic quality" (page 20).[22] Forbes and Street also point out that, along with other festivals such as Venice and Berlin, Cannes offers an opportunity to determine a particular country's image of its cinema and generally foster the notion that European cinema is "art" cinema.[22]
Additionally, given massive media exposure, the non-public festival is attended by many movie stars and is a popular venue for film producers to launch their new films and attempt to sell their works to the distributors who come from all over the globe.

This is total garbage. :::D

Almodovar is a Spanish director and his movies are made in Spain so this is not a Hollywood movie. As for the movie itself- I don't know if it's good but I see no reason for outrage and I don't think it is a new low.
-
Movie world has fallen in to the dark pit.
-
rape scenes in movies are truly disgusting and belong in the trash can.

And in the description I read it was much worse than a rape scene... Homosexual rape, transexual, daughter-father incest, etc.... It sounds like nothing but unadulterated filth...

This movie is trash.

Hollywood is not producing any good movies lately. I started watching movies from other countries like India and Serbia.

I am familiar with the work of Pedro Almodovar. He has made many movies, some of which are interesting. I did like his comedy "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown."
However, this is not the first time he has made disgusting films. A while back he had another sick film called "Matador," which also starred a young Antonio Banderas. From what I remember, Banderas's character admired this "matador" played by the actor Nacho Martinez. This "matador" killed his young female students by strangling them during sex.
Another gross film of his was "Tie Me Up Tie Me Down," which was about a mental hospital escapee, played by Antonio Banderas, who kidnaps and rapes a young woman. At the end, the woman ends up falling in love with her rapist/kidnapper.

So this puke has many rape fantasy and he wants to infect others... Very sick indeed... Maybe he should have stayed in porno snuff films...

Oh, and he made this other film called "Talk to Her," where a social misfit male nurse rapes and impregnates a comatose young woman under his care.
I should also add that Almodovar is openly homosexual.

So you are basically admitting you like one film of this deranged wicked director... Maybe the one film he made which didn't feature rape...

This was all a long long time ago.
I would never buy any of his DVDs now or see his his films in movie theaters.
