Love (2015)
in Movies ·
Just like his previous work, Noah has delivered an audiovisual feast worth remembering. “Love” features a stellar soundtrack, blending Bach’s instrumentals with John Carpenter’s synth vibes (“Assault on Precinct 13”) alongside the rock experiments of Pink Floyd and John Frusciante. His longtime DP, Benoit Debie (“Spring Breakers”), utilizes long takes and slow cuts that create a psychedelic, flickering effect... the camera hovers over the characters during sex, capturing them from various angles. Speaking of sex, he can be tender with soft whispers against a pillow, yet intensely erotic at times. The threesome scene involving Murphy, electro, and om is particularly erotic.
