█▓█ All tracks written and composed by Bruno Nicolai.
█▓█ Cast: Jack Palance, Akim Tamiroff, Mercedes McCambridge, Sylvia Koscina,
█▓█ Maria Rohm, Klaus Kinski.
█▓█ The Marquis de Sade partakes in black magic, sexual perversions and
█▓█ sacrificing young naked women.
█▓█ A film that tries to portray plenty of perversions, but is not an accurate
█▓█ account of the infamous sadist's exploits.
█▓█ ------------------------------------------------------------------------
█▓█ Of all the film maudit directorsùHerschell Gordon Lewis, Fred Olen Ray, Ed
█▓█ Wood among themùnone is more maudit than Jesse Franco. A Spanish director
█▓█ now in his feisty 70s, Franco has made an estimated 140 films under an
█▓█ orgy of pseudonyms. He has one of the most complex and confusing
█▓█ filmographies in cinema history. Tim Lucas of Video Watchdog, for whom
█▓█ Franco is something of a hero, has been mining the gravel quarry of
█▓█ Franco's career for years, culminating in the indispensable 1992 book
█▓█ Obsession: The Films of Jesse Franco (Selbstverlag Frank Trebbin, 255
█▓█ pages, ISBN 3 929234 05 X), but at least one reader has the distinct
█▓█ feeling that, thorough as the book is, the story still isn't fully told.
█▓█
█▓█ The relatively new DVD distributor Blue Underground has made a cunning
█▓█ choice from Franco's oeuvre in selecting Justine for release on DVD. One
█▓█ of Franco's more coherent films, Justine is also almost epical, with an
█▓█ all-star cast that includes Akim Tamiroff, Jack Palance, Maria Rohm,
█▓█ Mercedes McCambridge, Klaus Kinski, and Howard Vernon, and with its
█▓█ picaresque, Candide-like tale of a young woman's adventures in a corrupt
█▓█ society. You know you are in the midst of an unusually well-funded Franco
█▓█ film when there's a mammoth street scene featuring fruit stands,
█▓█ strongmen, and dancing monkeys. (More information can be unearthed about
█▓█ Blue Underground at its web site).
█▓█
█▓█ The film begins with De Sade (Kinski) carted off to jail. In his cell he
█▓█ writhes about like a caged animal and has visions of women in chains
█▓█ (Kinski's scenes took either one morning or two days, depending on who's
█▓█ telling the story). Then he begins to set down the story of Justine
█▓█ (Romina Power, who bears a vague resemblance to Jennifer Connelly) and her
█▓█ sister Juliette (Rohm). Sisters, they are thrown out of convent school and
█▓█ find themselves on different career paths. Juliette joins a brothel where
█▓█ she conspires with a Sapphic buddy (Rosemary Dexter, originally slated for
█▓█ the Justine role) to kill off the Madame. Eventually she ends up the
█▓█ consort of a wealthy aristocrat and government official, thus proving the
█▓█ film's theme (or its fear) that, as enunciated by the title character,
█▓█ "It's only the wicked who prosper" (and, adds Justine, "I think that if
█▓█ I'm allow to live, I intend to change my ways"). Justine, meanwhile, first
█▓█ goes to work for a decrepit fellow (Tamiroff), is arrested for thievery
█▓█ and is set to be hanged before unwillingly making her escape with a female
█▓█ gang leader (McCambridge). Then she ends up with a supportive and romantic
█▓█ painter to whom she is tracked down by the police. A stint as a handmaiden
█▓█ to a jodhpur and riding booted lady aristo (Sylvia Koscina, I think),
█▓█ playing Tony Curtis to the horsewoman's Laurence Olivier, and a period in
█▓█ the clutches of an insane monk (Palance) who tortures a clutch of women
█▓█ for the amusement of his order (in a kind of mini Salo) round out her
█▓█ escapades. The narrative shows a curious similarity to Polanski's more
█▓█ straight-faced Hardy adaptation Tess.
█▓█
█▓█ Franco originally wanted Dexter for the role of Justine but Power, the
█▓█ daughter of Tyrone Power, was foisted upon him by AIP, one of the film's
█▓█ backers. The seemingly brain dead Power, who never seems to have quite the
█▓█ right expression on her face, and virtually cracks up under the influence
█▓█ of Jack Palance's antics, proved unable to embody Franco's point, that
█▓█ Justine eventually comes to enjoy her suffering and turns truly
█▓█ masochistic, like a character out of Anne Rice's Roquelaure novels.
█▓█
█▓█ De Sade as both a real person and a film character is more fascinating to
█▓█ the French, who intellectualize him as a rebel-philosopher and social
█▓█ critic, than to Americans, who marginalize him as a dissipated pervert. A
█▓█ surprisingly varied array of thespians have played de Sade, from Geoffrey
█▓█ Rush in Quills to Bobby Young in The Erotic House of Wax, from Daniel
█▓█ Auteuil in The Skull of Pain to Keir Dullea in De Sade, from Patrick Magee
█▓█ in the adaptation of Peter Weiss's play to French singer and songwriter
█▓█ Serge Gainsbourg in the 1967 TV movie called Valmy. Edmund Wilson exploded
█▓█ the Sade cult 40 years ago, in a 1952 essay called "The Vogue of the
█▓█ Marquis de Sade" (reprinted in his book The Bit Between My Teeth) in which
█▓█ he asked, in response to Sade's celebration of transgression against human
█▓█ law, "Are not our moral and legal codes also the product of natural
█▓█ instincts? But it was difficult still in [Sade's] age to conceive of man
█▓█ as an animal with certain superior faculties, in the light of which he
█▓█ tries to discipline his so diverse natural instincts for purposes he
█▓█ strongly feels but is unable to formulate definitivelyàthe utopians of the
█▓█ eighteenth century were eventually to have their complement in the cynical
█▓█ practicality of Napoleon." For practical minded Americans, there is
█▓█ paradoxically too much philosophy in Sade's books and not enough sex.
