# Amelie/ Jean-Pierre Jeunet
# Amores Perros/ Alejandro Gonzales Inarritu (enough said!)
# Bad Education/ Pedro Almodovar
# Blue Velvet/ David Lynch
# Bram Stoker’s Dracula/ Francis Ford Coppola (it’s bathed in red and black… and Gary Oldman is so dark)

# Cinema Paradiso/ Giuseppe Tornatore
# Crash/ David Cronenberg

# Gie/ Riri Riza
# Goodbye Lenin/ Wolfgang Becker
# Hero/ Zhang Yimou
# In the Mood for Love/ Wong Kar Wai

# The Last Emperor/ Bernardo Bertolucci
# The Lord of The Rings/ Peter Jackson

# The Pillow Book/ Peter Greenaway (poetic idea about writing & body, sexualizing the text, textualizing the sex)
# The Seventh Seal/ Ingmar Bergman
# The Sixth Sense/ M. Night Shamalyan
# The Village/ M. Night Shamalyan (I love anything gothic… that’s the reason)
# Underground/ Emir Kusturica
# Y Tu Mama Tambien/ Alfonso Cuaron

SUICIDE RED’S TOP 3 “EROTIC” FILMS :-)

# The Night Porter/ Liliana Cavani
# Y Tu Mama Tambien/ Alfonso Cuaron
# The Piano Teacher/ Michael Haneke

I’ve just discovered recently that most of my favorite films are highly sexual. I’m not only interested in eroticism per se, but how great films interweave sexuality with issues of power and politics. The Night Porter is a role reversal of victim-perpetrator relationship, playing out the sadomasochistic fantasies about the sexualized image of an S.S. officer. The raunchy sex fantasy of an older woman and a disturbing discovery of homoeroticism in Y Tu Mama Tambien serve as a metaphor for sociopolitical situations in Mexico. Finally, The Piano Teacher explores desire and madness in contrast to the rigid Law of the Father represented by the Vienna conservatorium.
