Viewing Notes

Watched the director’s cut via MUBI, which is 30 minutes longer (2.5 hours total). Guessing the DC includes more the graphic sex and nudity bc I’m sure the 2hr cut that was in theaters didn’t have all that. But maybe it had some of it? Would like to know the differences.

Anyways, this is fine. Just a character (Charlotte Gainsbourg) telling stories about her sordid past and all the men she screwed along the way while Stellan Skarsgard shares stories about his boring interests.
