Q&A with director Sion Sono!

Sensational indie filmmaker Sion Sono returns to JAPAN CUTS with this much anticipated, gripping four-hour hentai (pervert) epic brimming with absurd gore, cross-dressers, sin and love triangles while exposing the contradictions within human nature. Yu feels compelled to commit sins for his father, who has become a catholic priest and demands daily confessions from him. As a result, Yu joins a local gang and becomes a master of hentai photography. Amidst the chaos that ensues, he falls in love at first sight with Yoko, whom he later discovers will become his new step sister. With an evil religious cult leader determined to convert his family and steal his precious Yoko away, Yu must go to extreme lengths to save the love of his life.

Hi,

Well, if I took a girl to see this film and she liked it, she'd be the one for me!

Rom coms as a genre are pretty awful (Bridget Jones etc) so I can see why you don't like the epithet applied to this film. However, I also really like The Apartment (1960) and think of it as a rom com despite its often very sour, un-rom com view of romantic relations.

Because its songs are so good, I often think of The Wicker Man as a horror musical even though many horror fans would disagree.

Lol! I'm imagining taking a girl out on a first date to the cinema to see this now. Like trying to put your arm around her when he gets his first erection.

[barrack obama]

yah yah yah yah lets just call it comedy.

Its just that if this were a romantic comedy. Then how the hell those fangirls of romantic comedy will feel after watching this movie.

[minch333]

Not everyone in japan considers it art, it is much more likely to be a satire on this Japanese subculture. Anyway Imdb disagrees with you and calls it a comedy but whatever, it's all just semantics.

[barrack obama]

that upskirt photos was real in japan in fact there it is considered art. That's no comedy that only funny scene. Even akira kurosawa movies had funny scene but it is not comedy.

[minch333]

There was loads of comedy! Him becoming the guy who forgives perverts of their sins? I'm mean, it was a very interesting scene but it was also really funny. Also the fact that he goes all ninja to take the upskirt photos, really joke.
