Viewing Notes
FF2010 Day Six: Film #3 - Next up was the film featured only today and the one I thought I wouldn’t get a boarding pass for… I was wrong! I was lucky to score one of few remaining passes that morning for Sion Sono’s Cold Fish (2010). Having still not seen his Love Exposure, which I understand to be brilliant, I would probably place Cold Fish at the top of those I have seen. It carries many similar themes from his other work centered around a dysfunctional family unit. It’s best to go into this one blind and let it engulf you. It’s insanely good and my #6 overall film of the fest.
