Love Express. The Disappearance of Walerian Borowczyk

00:01:11 I've seen a lot of your films and I think you're a huge pervert.

00:05:34 our director is completely detached from reality,

00:08:56 Polish directors had nothing to say to them...

00:12:05 And now it's gone quiet, but it's still happening.

00:15:14 And then you've got to step out of that role,

00:17:29 that's based on a novel by Anne rice.

00:20:04 of a society full of these rituals.

00:23:27 into the mainstream,

00:26:36 Did you have that in your life?

00:29:19 Yes. And that's a startling image, extraordinary actually.

00:32:01 very fundamentalist, almost as holy as the Pope.

00:35:15 I thought about acting

00:38:47 - When I first saw it 40 years ago, ii was just,

00:42:29 in the later films than the earlier films.

00:44:38 No doubt about it, because it was understood as pornography.

00:47:50 It's a very disappointing work by an inconsistent filmmaker.

00:49:52 But it had to happen. Sylvia Kristel signed a contract.

00:52:54 Whenever someone says "erotic movie" or "a film about sex",

00:55:57 it's hard to imagine that only 6 years ago

00:58:01 as someone who worked very much alone,

01:00:21 I often say that the end of the 1970s was the end of an era

01:02:57 I guess hiring Borowczyk

01:05:31 his assistant directs the actors.

01:10:29 maybe it'll pique your curiosity.
