Wild/Retrograde

"Wild" by Nicolette Krebitz was a movie which has the last two-thirds of it making up for the borefest that was its first third. The kind that lives up to its name - radical, raw, WILD. 


Reminds me of Pier Pasolini's Salò and Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan. Enough said. 

One has got to see it for themselves to taste its "wild offering." A guaranteed go-to art for anyone seeking an awakening of their senses. Animal instinct had never been this graphically demonstrated. 

And for some strange reason, that definitive scene left me a haunting impression with the huge help of this chilly soundtrack - Retrograde by James Blake.  


Pierced through my soul like I would want to transform myself. 

The erotic timing of James Blake's song weaved so well with the rhythm of Ania's visceral breakthrough. "Retrograde" is my new Regina Spektor. Last time I felt wounded by the two-pronged tandem of art and music was 10 years ago.
