Sex 2024 Full Movie Watch English
Imagine them talking about it with each other and with their wives
Chronology
Follows two colleagues who in different ways struggle with the same issues about their sexuality.. Admittedly I don't know much about Norway nor have I watched many Norwegian films, and I know this one film couldn't be representative of the nation's social milieu… Yet, I must say the emotional intelligence and calmness this film portrayed was most impressive for me.Depending on where you're from or what you stand for, the subject matter of 'Sex' might be uncomfortable for you. 2 straight married guys in their 40s – one just had a spontaneous sex with a male client, and the other, a Christian no less, feels something unraveling in him with the recurring dreams about David Bowie looking at him 'as if he were a woman'.
The 2 protagonists aren't even intellectuals
In almost any other countries, I could picture scenes of shocks, emotional outbursts, quarrels, accusations or denial – dramas in other words.It's different in Norway, or at least in this film. People are willing to talk and willing to listen without attempting to defuse, contradict, argue, intimidate or emotionally manipulate. They are chimney sweepers (I imagine it's considered as professionals in their own right, nevertheless more manual laborers).
The film is almost entirely consists of scenes of conversations and the cityscape shots in between
But even when they interact with each other, there's no usual put up of blocky masculine display. In every interaction with each character, they all seem to calmly meet each other on the eye level without having to play the expected social role.The overall presentation of the film adds to that quality. All the conversations are shot in long takes with just occasional shift of angles or zoom ins and outs, showing the conversation and expressions in real time.
Nor you may not fully agree with the situation and the message of this work
What is said itself also remains very realistic, with occasional fumble with words or backtracking of thoughts. With no flash cuts, scene changes or dynamic camera moves, the film gently encourages its audience to join in the conversation and listen, rather than get emotionally stimulated and react.I'm not saying it's all perfect in Norway . There are emotional distress that words cannot fully express, there are moments of hypocrisy, broken communication, and ultimately the inability to fully understand each other.
