You could watch Salo. "It's about those people who hide in a mansion and tell each other stories to pass the time."

They do much more - and much worse - than tell each other stories. The prostitutes do that - and the turned on libertines lash out on the victims.

You could, but even if you can withstand what you are actually seeing on the screen it's an incredibly tiresome movie experience. It's a black hole of the movie, because as you progress you quickly realize there is no hope on the horizon for any of the victims, and by watching you are actually a complicit partner in what's happening.

You might very well think so, I couldn't possibly comment.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

I'll give you a break on your obtuse Eurocentricism this time;  that was one neat production.

Only seen Tree of Life from the list. Have The Mill and the Cross on my Netflix queue though. :hmm:

Definitely gotta see it in HD;  I was lucky enough to catch it on the big screen, though.
