film list ~
belladonna of sadness is a 1973 erotic drama film about a peasant woman living in fuedal france who is raped by the king of the village the day of her wedding. jeanne takes her revenge by making a pact with the devil to transform into a beast of pleasure, madness, and desire.
i reccomend this film to the lovers of the psychedelic and eccentric, the musical, and people who fawn over their filth. i do not reccomend this film to people who are triggered by sexual assault / rape (especially here. it is always on screen) and are sensitive to flashing lights. please stay safe, and wait for another entry to this theatre!
!CONTENTWARNING: on screen rape, sexual abuse, domestic violence, misogyny, violence/blood, beastiality (brief.. like symbolic but to be safe), nudity, flashing, disturbing and sexual imagery
beautiful film. it really did hit me. the 2nd trippiest film i've ever had the pleasure of viewing. as a survivor myself, i really did see jeanne's pain. her cries and wanting to become a rotten woman was something really great. her becoming something she knew all would hated and sticking in that. a mixture of relief and further trauma and burden. i just feel like for people with this trauma who feel safe enough to watch things with graphic rape/assault without being triggered... it really can be the film for you, i feel. the soundtrack is like... so enchanting. i love the funk used here. its amazing. 'take it easy' and the opening track are just. ugh. i love the orgy scene so much and when jeanne becomes inhuman and marries the devil. the whole style of this film is something you don't see anywhere else. i love the repition. the broken memories. the looming figure, the sudden death, the distance on whats human and what isnt. its such a goregous film t_T.. i love this film a whole lot and would love to discover more like it in the future. uuu. jeannnneeeeeeee... jean. you bum. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! Such a good drama... fuuuck... * hits my bong of life. * its not for everyone, but a required watch ..
i really like the 3rd act.. its my favorite part in the film the odd sex cult and the murders and plagues and everything.. i just love how jeanne is animated like a knowing faerie sprite now. her with the flower and apple(?) is supercute. the devil's phallic design is a fav and ofc.. the queen... i enjoy her as a character. vile, vile. but interesting and if i had words id say more. love the lil trippy sequences thruout tho..always& foreva... its like reading a book though so if youre into more conventional or driven stuff i dont think this is for you u mind find it boring. this is like if a visual novel was a movie. ughhhh belladoonnnnnnnnnnnna................. (smokes again.) required... 10/10 dashies.
