"The Savage Nights" is an adaptation of Cyril Collard's semi-autobiographical novel "Les Nuits Fauves", published in 1989.The Brutal honesty is one of the most commendable aspects of this film. ... i mean don't we all try to hide our faults and flaws just so we can be socially acceptable ... while this one character comes out and bares his soul to the world.Collard plays himself in the movie which perhaps enlivens the struggles of the character with his bisexuality , his illness(AIDS) that was a new phenomenon in that era with the knowledge about it scares and a young mans acceptance to his situation.Bravery not always means going with arms against an enemy sometimes it's just telling the truth that is the bravest and most noblest of deeds ,Cyril Collard didn't try to camouflage anything the sheer courage behind this movie is what brings me to tears.His cry in the movie "i want to live" is unforgettable and literally breaks my heart.
