Overview
Matt, a young glaciologist, soars across the vast, silent, icebound immensities of the South Pole as he recalls his love affair with Lisa. They meet at a mobbed rock concert in a vast music hall - London’s Brixton Academy. They are in bed at night’s end. Together, over a period of several months, they pursue a mutual sexual passion whose inevitable stages unfold in counterpoint to nine live-concert songs.

Viewing Notes
Michael Winterbottom’s 9 Songs (2004) was expiring of the Instawatch so I was compelled to finally give it go despite what I had heard about it. And wowsa it’s even more explicit than I imagined. I suppose that titillation is the attraction here because the story isn’t that good. But a very interesting watch. I also like the story behind making the movie and the shroud of mystery with the lead actors. Just wish the plot was stronger.
