Savage/Love

About This Movie

Savage/Love is an interesting piece that serves as a precursor to the more recognized Tongues. The film really delves into the emotional aftermath of love, exploring how it can profoundly affect people in various ways. Its tone feels a bit raw and unrefined, giving off an intimate quality that’s hard to shake off. The pacing might seem uneven at times, but it adds to the overall disorienting feel of navigating relationships. Practical effects are minimal, yet they don’t detract from the performances, which are quite compelling. There's a certain distinctiveness in how it captures the complexities of love, almost like an experimental take on the subject matter. It’s not for everyone, but there’s something hauntingly relatable about it.
