THE NAKED MEAL

Wednesday 21 September 2022 by David Cronenberg (Canada, Great Britain, Japan, 1991) 115' "David Cronenberg, The Inner Beauty" In collaboration with Cineteca Bologna. More than the adaptation of Burrough’s non-fiction novel, it is the result of a repeated crash between cinema and literature leaving shreds everywhere. Cinema, like literature, or drugs, murder, and sex, is a matter of perception. If you get high on pyrethrum, you end up thinking (and perceiving things) like a cockroach, or a rat. It would be interesting to tie someone to a chair to watch The Naked Meal a hundred times in a row, and see what happens in their mind.
