It got me hooked the whole time, but I don't quite get if the movie thinks that smut corrupts the mind or it is a form of liberation.
A sarcastic and thoughtful film about the value of fighting for freedom of speech. Stunning cast, well-paced and unforgettable story
Gross yet arousing, just like the Marquis de Sade. Watch this with your horniest friend. Rush and Winslet have appropriately weird chemistry
Really good drama piece. Rush and Phoenix really steal the show hear. Great writing and good acting. I'd recommend if a fan of period films.
Good film, deserves a watch for the performances.
One of the best, darkest, rare, captivating and daring movies ever made. Excellent cast, script and directing.
Dark and deep movie. Makes thing about good and evil.
Very touchy(no pun intended) subject but I thought it was a fantastic movie. Rush is a brilliant actor and portrayed De Sade very nuanced
A sensational biopic about de Sade. Rush is superior as the Marquis with decadence and embellishments over-the-top!
A good portrait of Marquis de Sade with a wonderful Geoffrey Rush as history‘s greatest advocate for sexual self-exploration.
