Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn - Official Trailer - YouTube

Emi (Katia Pascariu), a schoolteacher, finds her reputation under threat after a personal sex tape is uploaded onto the internet. Forced to meet the parents demanding her dismissal, Emi refuses to surrender. BAD LUCK BANGING OR LOONY PORN is a film in three loosely connected parts: a walk in the city of Bucharest, then a playful essay on obscenities, all culminating, in the third part, in an incendiary comic confrontation.

I like it. It is very acclaimed.

Though it feels more like a "project" than a film - in the sense, it is more like a discursive video essay than an actual narrative. The narrative elements only really kick in in the last section which is basically one long scene.

Interesting attempt I would say.

3/5

A note/advisory to those interested in seeing this: this film contains some EXPLICIT content.

[slumcat]

There is full-on penetration shown, blow job, erect penis, etc. (Though the lead actress did not do her own hardcore sex scenes, they were done by a body double). Don't remember if a cum shot is shown.

This is actually a critically venerated movie and won the Golden Bear award at 2021's Berlin Film Festival. So if you want some hard-core stuff and at the same tell your family/friends that you are watching a high-brow art film - then this film will do the trick for you.

Compelling and provocative. Not for everyone, unfortunately.

Lordy. This is one hell of a description.

Eh, I'm just not into political humor.

Been wanting to see this for a while. Waiting for it to be a VOD rental in a few weeks.

That's cheating! If you're gonna star in a hardcore film at least have the guts to go all the way.

Very few mainstream actors have actually performed hard-core scenes on camera.

The only ones that I know of are Mark Rylance and Kerry Washington. And Angeliki Papoulia and Christos Passalis. And Vincent Gallo and Chloë Sevigny.

Sounds greasy.

I'd guess there's a sex scene where a chick wears a mask and someone has sex with her? That's a thing nowadays.

Is this going to be on Disney +?

Nah, she's a teacher and runs an onlyfan-like account in her spare time. She wears a wig and heavy make-up to disguise herself a bit while having sex. One of her students' father recognizes her anyways and complains to school and then all hell breaks loose.

If you liked this and wanted to explore the director's early work. His movie, "I Do Not Care If We Go Down In History As Barbarians", is getting released from Big World Pictures & Vinegar Syndrome.

I liked Part III, but the first two I found tedious. What do you make of all the walking around the streets, random pans, lingering shots... and all of Part II?

Bizzare. I think it was more or less just an attempt to capture the lockdown on film.

It felt like docu-fiction.

The second part - where they run through literally it seemed like PowerPoint slides of words and meanings seemed like a youtube video to me - a highly explicit one at that. It had no narrative purpose.

Also there was one point where the film I think suddenly switched to English and it completely threw me off.

If you're interested in this... be careful which retailer you rent it from. A buddy of mine rented it off of Amazon and got a censored version (see spoilered photos).

[Show spoiler]

I rented on Vudu and it was uncensored.
