Les 7 derniers outrages

About This Movie

So, 'Les 7 derniers outrages' is one of those fascinating pieces from the mid-80s that dives headfirst into the realm of taboo and sexual awakening. The atmosphere is thick with intrigue and a touch of surrealism, as we follow the new bride played by Régine Bourgeois, whose wedding night spirals into a series of indulgent escapades. The pacing can feel a bit uneven, but it adds to the rawness of the experience. There’s a distinct feel of exploration and liberation, as the bride interacts with various characters, including two other women, all wrapped in an almost dream-like presentation. The performances carry a certain weight, making you ponder the intersection of desire and societal expectations, which is pretty compelling.

This film has a bit of a niche appeal among collectors, primarily due to its obscurity and the limited availability of physical formats. It originally had a limited run on VHS, and finding a copy can be somewhat challenging. Many collectors are drawn to its exploration of themes that push boundaries, making it a point of interest for those who appreciate more avant-garde cinema from the 80s.
