Blow Job

Behind the mischievous title "Blow Job" and the various hard declinations there isn’t a porn movie, but an erotic thriller with a strong meaning. Noble intentions destroyed by a poor production, (with embarrassing day for night effects and an amateur acting) from excessive erotic inserts and a hard unobtainable version that sounds a bit 'as a legend.
Author of this complex work is Alberto Cavallone a director underestimated and a little 'forgotten returned to the honors of the cinema chronicle (or at least to a certain cinema) thanks to the valuable work of Italian magazine "Nocturno" .
The magazine of David Pulici has dedicated several special, has revived some interviews, rescue o complex director who loved the strong themes and the analysis of society in all its darker shades.
Exactly the theme of "Blow Job". An incomprehensible movie if you do not read at least one of these interviews.
For what we understand in this 1980's film the story is: Stefano and Diana two actors, trying to escape secretly from the hotel in which they live for not paying the bill. At the same time a girl commits suicide by throwing himself from the window. Taking advantage of the confusion of the moment the two flee and go to a race track where they meet a strange woman who asks them a favor. The woman leads them at home, a big castle where strange and inexplicable things happen. Until Cavallone doesn’t explain the mystery. "It was an attempt to film some thoughts by Castaneda, also referring back to Huxley's “The Doors of Perception”. Everything was about on the possibility of escape from oneself, to change the perception through the use of drugs or self concentration (...) Blow Job is the story of a split. There is an ugly witch - we meet in the first scene, set in a racetrack - that through a phone call intrigue the protagonist, Danilo Micheli and take him in a strange house; where he then meets a beautiful girl, disturbing ... because she has a Mexican, Peruvian face... with a statuesque body. In short, the girl puts him in, treat it as if it were a puppet. But in fact this beautiful woman has the same ugly women, which splits "

Full of symbolism, surreal scenes and dialogues absurd "Blow Job" occasionally bored and its production certainly does not help to digest it all. The characters, with the exception of the witch, are superficial, but occasionally Cavallone gives us moments below all, show a great class and a great intensity, as the ballroom scene or that of the cemetery, where the protagonist sees his funeral. The ending is the only one possible: a sublimation of all previous craziness.
Not a masterpiece, but a film that deserves to be seen from every movie buff. Or at least of a certain film.
