6/10
Not bad...
15 May 2010
I think that Bertolucci is a mediocre director, so this movie somewhat exceeded my expectations.

It had a very nice cinematography (Vittorio Storaro did a superb job), a good flow and a very appropriate soundtrack (I would like to know what music A. Piazzolla would compose for this). I liked the erotic tension between the protagonists and I think that it was filmed very well.

On the other side, Marlon Brando's acting is second-rate and Schneider's is almost decent. The dialogue was sometimes very nice, but sometimes it was just funny and non-convincing.

Watch it if you like art films with an erotic element.
