“You have a plot. Language. Sound and music, all of which create emotion. But the relationship between these three elements won’t let the audience take the easy way out. In my opinion, it’s really a film the audience won’t have an easy time with, but actually quite a hard one. My film isn’t supposed to let feelings people already have be neutralized or soaked up; instead, the film should create new feelings…. I’m concerned with having the audience … examine its own innermost feelings…. To me that’s more political, or politically more aggressive and active, than if I point out [a particular group] as the great oppressors.” - Rainer Werner Fassbinder

Occasionally very funny, but in the end Getting Any? is far too uneven to stand up favorably to Kitano’s more poignant, gripping works. If you haven’t noticed from my recent posts, I’m currently watching my way through my unwatched Kitano films.  Next up is Kids Return.
