Week 14: Hold Me While I'm Naked

I think that George Kuchar is very, very good at making his kind of movies. He is a solid actor and director and his film "Hold Me While I'm Naked" was one of the best films we have seen this semester. I especially liked the underlying humor in it. There is something about Kuchar's voice and demeanor that make his movies so interesting. On top of that, the way he puts together his material and edits them creates something that the viewer is stimulated or interested in. I also enjoyed his fascination with dramatic music which he incorporates throughout all of his films. The music that he chooses adds a whole new tone to the film that it would otherwise be without. However, I did not find Kuchar's film that was shown in the beginning of class very interesting (the one about the people who go to that ancient island and start having orgies). It seemed to be apart from his earlier films.
