Disco Pigs (2001)
4/10
Stylish, but doesn't deliver
3 September 2003
The cinematography in this film was stylish, sometimes gorgeous, and leaves images fresh in my mind two months after having seen it. I also thought the two leads did great jobs. Where this film failed for me was in the editing. The synopsis on the back of the rental box explains that Runt and Pig have a unique bond, and the flashbacks used at several points in the film tease the viewer into thinking we'll get a credible explanation of how that bond became so powerful as to survive for so many years. But the flashbacks ultimately lack cohesivness, and we're left feeling that the characters are a bit unsubstantiated relative to the gravity of events portrayed.
