y’all know when u go to the dentist office and they give u laughing gas so they can fill ur cavity and u enter a giant dark sphere and all the sound around u starts echoing and bouncing off the walls of that sphere and spinning around in your head? and not only is it doing that but you can also predict what you’re about to hear almost as though you have some sort of auditory insight into the future? yeah
True poetic cinema
"In 'Salo' (1976), sex is nothing but an allegory of the commodification of bodies at the hands of power. I think that consumerism manipulates & violates bodies as much as Nazism did. My film represents this sinister coincidence between Nazism & consumerism."
Pier Paolo Pasolini (via DepressedBergman)
It’s alarming honestly
how charming she can be
if i can’t have you baby, no one else in this world can
he's so
