Eros c'est Lamour

About This Movie

Eros c'est Lamour is this intriguing puzzle of a film, weaving together elusive fragments that really pull you in. Dorothy's vision draws on the surreal and the ephemeral, creating a dreamlike atmosphere that feels almost like a cinematic collage. The pacing is non-linear, which might throw some viewers, but it really adds to the disorientation and beauty of the experience. You can almost feel the weight of the references—from Rose Hobart to Maria Montez—each hinting at a deeper connection through the lens of desire and identity. And those practical effects? They’re used sparingly but effectively, enhancing the film's unconventional narrative. It's definitely one of those pieces that stays with you long after it ends.

Eros c'est Lamour is a bit of a rarity in the collector’s realm, often overshadowed by more mainstream titles. Its unique blend of avant-garde storytelling and rich atmospheric visuals makes it a fascinating watch for those who appreciate experimental cinema. Limited print runs have increased its collectibility, and there’s an ongoing interest in the film’s more obscure references, which adds layers for collectors seeking depth in their collections.
