the FORT90 FILM CLUB presents: "LOVE IS STRAINED"


  • Wonderville 1186 Broadway Brooklyn, NY, 11221 United States (map)

Celebrate this Valentine’s Day with the FORT90 FILM CLUB, as it features a trio of films that shows love for what it truly is: often brutal as well as super messy… the kind that leaves bloodstains. FALLEN ANGELS - Some view it as the unofficial sequel to Chungking Express, but in reality it was originally part of that film but separated. Which was for the best, because it’s rather dark and moody and somber and did I mention moody depiction of Hong Kong at night is highly relatable to any New Yorker that tries to look for love in all the wrong places and in all the wrong people. THE ISLE - To say this Korean art house flick is notorious is an understatement. All that really needs to be said is how stories of Venice Film Festival fainting and vomiting are now quaint when compared to the super problematic director’s behaviors later down the road. As for the film itself, it’s about a woman who rents out floating cottages and the relationship that develops between herself and one renter that is on the run. ****SECRET MOVIE**** - Can’t say a whole lot her, other than it is a pink film, which is a Japanese term for artsy-farty softcore porno. But trust and believe that this is the great artsy-farty softcore porno you will have EVER seen.
