แนะนำหนังเม็กซิโกแปลกๆ (ต่อ)

นอกจาก 5 ผู้กำกับหนังเฮี้ยนชาวเม็กซิโกที่แนะนำไปข้างบนแล้ว เม็กซิโกยังมีหนังแปลกๆที่น่าสนใจอีกเช่น

1. PACHITO REX: I’M LEAVING BUT NOT FOR GOOD (2001, FABIAN HOFFMAN, A+)

หนังการเมืองเรื่องนี้เคยมาฉายที่ลิโด และนำเสนอเรื่องราวทางการเมืองได้ประหลาดดี

Combining digital video technology with stylized computer-generated imagery, this film takes a decidedly unusual approach as it combines three short stories involving one Pachito Rex (Jorge Zarate), a former pop music star who became a powerful political figure before being assassinated somewhere in South America. Or was he? In the first segment, we follow Sobrino (Ernesto Gomez Cruz) as he is released from jail after being accused of killing Pachito. In the second story, Pachito's body has gone missing, and Estrada (Pedro Altamirano), a police detective, is given the assignment of finding out what has happened to the great man's remains. And finally, Abel (Damian Alcazar) is a noted architect who is hired to design a memorial to Pachito, which brings him both good fortune and bad. Combining bizarre humor and purposefully unrealistic visual design, Pachito Rex: Me Voy Pero No Del Todo was produced through the auspices of the Centro de Capacitacion Cinematografica, a film education center operated by the Mexican government. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

3.HOMEWORK (1990, JAIME HUMBERTO HERMOSILLO) + FORBIDDEN HOMEWORK (1992, JAIME HUMBERTO HERMOSILLO)

เนื้อเรื่องของ FORBIDDEN HOMEWORK
Expanding on ideas from "La Tarea" (Homework), Director Jaime Humberto Hermosillo continues his story, now of a young man completing an assignment for his film/video class. The young man invites Marieda, a middle-aged woman, over to his aunt's house to rehearse for a video drama she believes they will eventually record. But she doesn't realize that she is being videotaped since her arrival. After a faux-sex scene rehearsal, they do make love, which causes an unexpected reaction within the young man. Minutes later the real horror of their true relationship is revealed!

5.หนังของ JOSE LUIS RODRIGUEZ อย่างเช่นเรื่อง
http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1069/is_6_38/ai_n13470500

5.1 DESPOILED

หนังเรื่องนี้เกิดจากการที่แมวของเพื่อนของ RODRIGUEZ ตายด้วยสาเหตุธรรมชาติ เขาก็เลยนำศพแมวนี้มาชำแหละ และบันทึกภาพการชำแหละศพแมวเก็บเอาไว้

(ข้อความภาษาอังกฤษข้างล่างนี้มาจากบทความของ CHRIS CHANG ในนิตยสาร FILM COMMENT)

Despoiled, aka "the cat movie," is quintessential Rodriguez. Shot in stark black-and-white, the film depicts the systematic mutilation of a cat's corpse (shot with a macro lens).


5.2 EULOGIES
หนังเกย์

In Eulogies, for example, the image of the same young man appears over and over, but each time the photo is defaced in different ways. The viewer doesn't get the specifics, but can definitely sense Rodriguez's infatuation, and a somewhat obsessive need to rework the face as if it were a malleable object. "I was obsessed with this boy. Of course he was not interested. But he let me take his picture. So then I did a whole body of work with that picture. Thousands of copies with that. I'm really into objects, so it's about desire and this object and not an actual person."


5.3 UNTITLED
หนังเกย์
It's a literal cut-up piece in which collaged male bodies circulate around a black background, and with a little help from some sharp objects, create an interactive dance in which they consume and regurgitate each other in a symbiotic visual sex act--complete with lubrication provided by what appears to be actual saliva.


6.หนังเกย์ของ JULIAN HERNANDEZ อย่างเช่น

6.1 A THOUSAND CLOUDS OF PEACE FENCE THE SKY, LOVE; YOUR BEING LOVE WILL NEVER END (2003)
http://www.fortissimofilms.com/images/persons/JULIAN%2004.jpg
The lingering caress from a familiar hand… The longing that weighs upon a broken heart… A love which once was so beautiful, youthful and eternal has dissipated into regret and yearning, like the clear blue sky that now only knows darkness. But if a ray of light can break up the stormiest of clouds, then even the deepest of despair can be rescued by hope. Julian Hernandez’s poetic, sensual rumination on love and relationship is a delicate, truthful and highly emotional portrayal of two young souls at their most vulnerable.

6.2 BROKEN SKY (2006)

Using short bursts of poetic prose to nudge the process, Hernandez has created a masterpiece that will affect how you look at relationships now and forever, using Kubrickian stylings and a camera unafraid to penetrate through the walls of sexual desire, meeting with the reality of attraction.
