What I'm Watching #58

"The Longing" a.k.a. "Saudade" is a child stillborn, a cake only half baked. An interesting idea that just wasn't hatched by a crew of film makers that were up to the challenge.

The story is one of relationships. There are three German young men who live in a paradisical Brazilian seacoast village and earn their keep by performing sex uploaded to their internet sex site. Great idea, eh? That is until one of them murders a local in an attempt to avoid a rape on the beach.

The rest of the film is about the consequences, but by that time any descerning viewer has checked out!
