CAPRICCI
(Carmelo Bene, Italy, 1969) (F)
The wretched, gasping attempts by this near-
corpse to make love to the nubile young
woman exemplify the expressionist, black
humor and melodrama of an exorbitant work.

Carmelo Bene is an unknown genius of contemporary cinema.
This is one of his masterpieces. Bene's films are visual, lyrical
and auditory cataclysms, whose lava-like outpourings are of
unequalled hallucinatory perversity. Their visual density and
creative exuberance defy description. Capricci -- melodramatic,
wildly expressionist, and opaque -- includes a bloody, endless
fight between two men brandishing hammer and sickle, poisoned
Christ paintings that kill the beholder, impotent sex by a lecher-
ous old man coughing his lungs out over a tantalyzingly nude
woman, killings, car crashes, explosions, and raging fires, all
accompanied by operatic arias, constantly moving cameras,
and violent montage. Vulgar black humor, eroticism, and
anarchic action mingle in this swirl of color and incessant
motion -- a tour de force of expressionist filmmaking.
