I had a movie marathon over the weekend. There's a theme among these somewhere...
Age of Consent (1969) -
A past-his-prime artist on an off-shore island rediscovers his muse in the form of a young girl.
A light, sunny breeze of a movie for sure, but Helen Mirren, oh my.
7/10
Malèna (Uncut) (2000) -
Amidst the war climate, a teenage boy discovering himself becomes love-stricken by Malèna, a sensual woman living in a small, narrow-minded Italian town.
It's sexy eye candy comedy (even more so in the uncut version) for the first half before the war setting gives the film a dark turn.
7/10
Under the Skin (2013) -
A mysterious young woman seduces lonely men in the evening hours in Scotland. However, events lead her to begin a process of self-discovery.
This is one of my top five favorite sci-fi films.
10/10
