Title: Sex and Lucia DvD

Has anyone seen this film? I was waiting a long time for it to come out and I'm a little dissapointed by it. The structure of the movie reminded me too much of "lovers of the arctic circle" , by that same director. It has its moments , but the movie kind of dragged on too long by the end.

I saw it in theaters; the first hour or so is great, and then it kinda bogs down in twists and stuff. Still enjoyable, though, and I thought a lot of the HD photography was stunning (the blown out stuff on the beach in particular). Not to mention all the sex.

I loved 'Lovers Of The Arctic Circle.' Beautiful melodrama. And, I think, the only movie I can think of that had a scene of a guy masturbating that wasn't used to draw laughs or make him seem pathetic.

Ahem, but PDL. Kind of.

And, they're not guys, but what about Mulholland Drive or Personal Velocity?
