Eros + Massacre

Published: March 20, 2018, 10:01 p.m.

Chris is joined by The Projection Booth's Mike White\xa0to continue\xa0Mike White March\xa0with a look at quite possibly the finest example of Japanese New Wave cinema, Yoshishige Yoshida's Eros + Massacre. The film focuses on two separate storylines: the final days of anarchist Sakae \u014csugi before his assassination and the lives of two students Eiko and Wada as they research the teachings and philosophy of\xa0\u014csugi. It's a three and a half hour epic that traverses separate\xa0timelines and multiple characters and their lives.
