The writing is pretty good (although a bit too assembled for a three parter) and the acting is overall strong ... but I think the director and editor just stepped all over it. If had I one more flash to an oyster by the end of the movie, I just might have screamed.<BR/><BR/>I mean once you spray a girl in gold and show her off with an enormous dildo - "subtle symbolism" is going to look bad anyway, and doing it repeatedly just looks amatuer.Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04260309971152360156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9611352.post-34785153924782938922008-05-06T23:56:00.000-07:002008-05-06T23:56:00.000-07:00Hex and Tipping The Velvet are all very forthright...Hex and Tipping The Velvet are all very forthright and in-your-face and wonderfully experimental. But... they're not very GOOD, are they? I'm frankly amazed Hex makes it into a second season after the confused rubbish at the end of the first. And Tipping the Velvet - I'm just not sure how lesbians in corsets can be BAD and yet somehow they manage it...Greg Tannahillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00823898295759037081noreply@blogger.com
