Barbarella
Igår tittade vi på kultfilmen Barbarella från 1968 med Jane Fonda i huvudrollen. Den var verkligen speciell. Jag trodde Barbarella skulle vara någon slags superhjälte som samtidigt utnyttjade folk för sex åt höger och vänster, men så var det inte. Barbarella klarade knappt av någonting utan blev ständigt tillfångatagen och blodig och fick trasiga kläder. Särskilt klyftig var hon inte heller. Det talades en hel del om sex i filmen men i slutänden fick man faktiskt aldrig se något alls.
Några sköna kommentarer ur filmen:
Presidenten: Han har uppfunnit ett vapen.
Barbarella: Ett vapen? Varför skulle någon vilja uppfinna ett vapen?
Pygar: Hjälp! Hjälp!
Barbarella: Varför skriker de? Mycket dramatik börjar med skrik.
Den ondskefulla lesbiska drottningen: Hello pretty pretty!
Barbarella: Jag heter inte pretty pretty. Jag heter Barbarella.
Såhär säger IMDB om Barbarella:
In the far future, a highly sexual woman is tasked with finding and stopping the evil Durand-Durand. Along the way she encounters various unusual people. After an in-flight anti-gravity striptease (masked by the film's opening titles), Barbarella, a 41st century astronaut, lands on the planet Lythion and sets out to find the evil Durand Durand in the city of Sogo, where a new sin is invented every hour. There, she encounters such objects as the Exessive Machine, a genuine sex organ on which an accomplished artist of the keyboard, in this case, Durand Durand himself, can drive a victim to death by pleasure, a lesbian queen who, in her dream chamber, can make her fantasies take form, and a group of ladies smoking a giant hookah which, via a poor victim struggling in its glass globe, dispenses Essance of Man. You can't help but be impressed by the special effects crew and the various ways that were found to tear off what few clothes our heroine seemed to possess.
