Default Baise-Moi - Specs Thread


Baise-moi (Arrow Video) DVD





Sex and shooting assault the senses in Baise-moi [literally ‘**** Me’ or ‘Kiss Me’], a bloody buddy movie that’s like Thelma and Louise on acid. Banned on release in France, the film has provoked as much horror as it has debate.


Manu – a part time porn star - and Nadine – a hooker – set out to leave their town for Paris after witnessing and being subject to rape and violence. They rage against societal expectations in a fury of robbery, orgiastic lust and murder.


One of the most controversial movies of the last 20 years, Baise-moi was described as the most sexually explicit film to ever reach British screens by the UK press, the film offers the complacent viewer a cinematic slap in the face.


Special Features:

- Special Features to be announced closer to the time!

- Original theatrical trailer

- Reversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Joe Wilson

- Collector’s booklet featuring writing on the film by author Kier-la Janisse

Release date: 25th March 2013
Region 2
RRP £15.99

ARROW VIDEO'S BAISE-MOI IS AVAILABLE ON DVD FROM 25TH MARCH 2013. PRE-ORDER YOURS HERE.

Well, I do. If I buy it, it'll only be if it's uncut.

I doubt very, very much it will be the full uncut version. If Arrow submit the full version, the BBFC will still cut it. A rape scene that includes hardcore penetration shots? The BBFC don't like sexual violence at the best of times, but mix that in with some hardcore footage and there's no way it'll get past the censors at Soho Square. Personally, I don't think Arrow will resubmit it, they'll just re-use the already passed edit IMO (which will also save them BBFC fees, saving themselves £600-odd).

Yes, it would be nice to think the BBFC are all grown up and stuff - but you know how the British are about sex (especially the BBFC). It's perceived as either dirty or offensive. Britain really needs to mature and grow up a bit.

I don´t understand why the BBFC even bother to still cut movies, especially in this day and age when anyone can easily buy an uncut import version or watch it online.
And it´s also comical how afraid they are of hardcore porn, when it´s just a mouse click away

Are there any hardcore stuff at all avalible in the UK, or is it all softcore?
