Event
God's Comedy
(Joao Cesar Monteiro, Portugal, 1995, 35mm, 170 min)
Dryly comic, disturbing and deservedly honored with the Venice Film Festival's Silver Lion when it was released, God's Comedy is one of the most flagrantly perverse films you're likely to see. The protagonist manages the Paradise Ice Cream Parlor, where he concocts exquisite flavors. At home he delights in poring over his treasured collection of female pubic hairs. Refusing to compromise even with his admirers, Monteiro made a film that at first appears long-winded and self-indulgent, though it contains several brazen and unforgettable sequences that will take your breath away. Upon reflection, however, you may agree that cutting even an instant of this lucid, intransigent film would be like wanting to remove the mole from the face of a loved one.
