		But film societies were able to show it and many doubled and tripled their membership when they did.
		Film censorship was carried out by a federal government organisation, on behalf of the states, and administered by the Customs Department.
		Some of the decisions made seemed quite extraordinary to me. More importantly, film societies and festivals were not exempt from censorship at all and nothing was ever made public about it --it was all kept very secret.

	Bollywood, Eros International, Devdas
		In my younger years I watched Bollywood films with affection, I enjoyed the numerous costume changes, the singing, the dancing, the fight scenes and all the emotion.
		This film was beautifully made and stirred feelings inside me that made me love it immediately.
		The story was this films defining point for me. It's a story of a love that cannot be and it's tragic, tragic ending upset me so much I cried I all the way home.

	Eros
		The film also serves as an homage by the two younger directors to Antonioni, who has informed and inspired their work.
		This situation inspired me to make a film about the act of 'touch.' What motivated me to do this film was Michelangelo Antonioni–who had been the guiding light for me as well as filmmakers of my generation.
		Rather than a story, Antonioni's film is a mental adventure, where there is no use in looking for an actual story, just rather let oneself be carried by the settings, the suggestions, the provocations, the sensations which are beneath everything.

	Central Europe Review - Film: Ferenc Grunwalsky
		Knowledge of the first film is, however, not essential for the appreciation of the second, as Grunwalsky summarises the story so far in fl and white flash-backs.
		Bleaker than its predecessor, the film Visszateres is an unusually visceral piece of film-making which stood out in a festival in which emulating the vacuousness of Hollywood seemed to be a principal trend.
		Although the film is not set to become an all-time classic in anyone's books, it is a confident and intelligent achievement and deserves more than simply being eclipsed by Jancso's film.

		Along with her wheel-chair ridden brother, the school’s bad-girl, and the son of the preacher man, Mary is determined to make it through her nine months of pregnancy and to her graduation, while remaining unscathed by the school’s resident do-gooder hypocrite, and her former Clique friend, Hilary Faye.

		This film is is rated R for strong sexual content including graphic nudity and for language.
		“Eros” is an anthology of three medium length films on the subject of eroticism and desire, from a trio of the world’s most outstanding directors, Wong Kar Wai, Steven Soderbergh, and Michelangelo Antonioni.
		In 1995, Stéphane Tchal Gadjieff produced Michelangelo Antonioni’s feature film “Beyond the Clouds,” made after the great director suffered a paralytic stroke, which left him partially paralyzed (Wim Wenders was brought in as a standby and as director of the structure that links the four episodes that Antonioni directed).

	Three-Way Split: "Eros"
		The bulk of the film follows in Wong style by recapitulating the trail of longing that led to that moment, a chronicle of bodies and hallways, surfaces and emptiness, rendered in one-sided wide compositions and recurring motifs like a circular wall mirror and the familiar thin wall separating love-makers.
		Aside from capturing a series of temporal impressions, Antonioni may be intending an update on the state of eros in a pornographic age; at least, one wants to make something of the one unusual scene, in which the second woman engages in a pre-coital session of masturbation whilst standing on her bed.
		The film was built to showcase a new Antonioni short, "The Dangerous Thread of Things," positioned to bat cleanup after a minor piece by Wong Kar-wai and an irksome, arch trifle by Steven Soderbergh.

		The Muslim Parliament was invited to view the film after objectionswere raised by the Muslim community that certain parts in the film were offensive.
		He added: "We therefore invite you to come and see the film and if you have any objections to any scene, I will make sure it is removed from the film." After viewing the film on July 10, Dr Siddiqui wrote to Mr Lulla that they found two scenes offensive.

	DVD Times - Eros
		Even though all these elements are familiar and employed elsewhere in his films, with the slightest of tweaks Wong Kar-Wai subtly changes the emphasis of the material towards the erotic, again showing himself to be the master of expressing the finer nuances of the emotions surrounding love and desire.
		If the film has any weakness, it is that the shorter length of the film compresses the time period and changing emotions that would be better suited to feature length and risks pushing Wong’s characteristic understatement over into overwrought melodrama.
		For all the films the soundtrack is front and centre based with most of the use of rear speakers coming from the music score, and that is only really evident in the Antonioni segment.

	Cinemarati Blog » Eros: The Hand (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		As the film opens, a tailor (Chen Chang) implores an unseen, and seemingly gravely ill woman, Miss Hua (Gong Li) to try on a dress that he had, years earlier, expressly made for her.
		Also, I can see that throughout the film (like the scene involving the nude waterfall bathers) that he was trying to recreate iconic images (like Sirens), but they were so far away and so tangential to the “plot” that all you saw were representational, naked female forms.
		I like the Flaubertian vocabulary the two of you have brought to your treatment of the film, but I’d also argue that the avid assumption of 19th-century tropes well past their prime—beautiful but doomed prostitutes, anyone?—is at least as regressive as it is interesting.

	KODAK: Eros - film or digital? That was Antonioni's question - Print Friendly Version
		In short, I said that if his aim was to make this film with 'traditional' photography, then I saw no reason to shoot digitally.
		This filming plan reassured Antonioni that, by starting with the highest quality medium - film - and then working on the 'atmosphere' using advanced digital technology, he would retain complete creative control.
		Film (especially our two choices), with its much wider exposure latitude compared with P24, gave us much better coverage of this important visual feature.

		And while the book is far from being a complete study of Japanese sex films (often referred to as pinku eiga, or pink films, by fans) and horror cinema, it is an excellent primer guaranteed to whet your appetite for more of Japan’s unique brand of cinematic mayhem.
		Wakamatsu films are infamous for merging his diverse influences—primarily a marriage of the pink film aesthetics of men like Tetsuji Takechi and the Japanese new wave stylings of Nagisa Oshima.
		Once again, Hunter gives an interesting overview of the films, the historical period in which they were made, the men who made them, and how they fit into the Japanese culture.

		Eros is a collection of three short films on the eponymous subject, created as a tribute to the veteran director Michelangelo Antonioni, whose film The Dangerous Thread of Things is the concluding work.
		Filmed in moody saturated blues and darkly lit, The Hand is a small gem by a director in complete control of his extraordianry art.
		The film is a leaden mess with sullen performances and heavy-handed symbolism; it seems like Antonioni satirizing his own style.

	Paste Magazine :: Review :: Eros :: directors: Wong Kar-Wai, Steven Soderbergh, Michaelangelo Antonioni (Page 1)
		The film is a failure, no matter how grandiose its title or the names above it, not because the three parts don’t connect, but because each of them could be better.
		She lends her glove to the film’s title, and the film focuses too tightly on visceral, trite experience to be erotic.
		Eros won’t leave you with any of that, and certainly Antonioni bears at least a third of the blame.

	Film Comment
		Eros the omnibus - a trio of shorts by Wong Kar-wai, Steven Soderbergh, and Michelangelo Antonioni - is likewise chronologically sweetbitter.
		This being a Soderbergh film, there must be juggled time frames and photographic tonalities.
		Eros begins with its eye on the ball (or rather, with its hand on Zhang's balls), distracts itself to flaccidity out the window, then meanders back to space out on some boobies.

	Wong Kar-wai Dominates Uneven "Eros"
		Chang Chen (who appeared in Wong's earlier film "Happy Together") is the new tailor who comes to take her measurements for a dress.
		The film stock is a creamy fl-and-white, and the set is sliced by large bands of shadows from a Venetian blind, in the style of classic film noir.
		As always in an Antonioni film, space comments obliquely on the film's themes, but the director seems more interested in the two women featured in the film who are almost completely naked throughout.

	NilBlogette: 2046 and EROS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The film should have ended with the reveal that the sci-fi story is something our hero is writing to deal with his past and present loves.
		Instead, the film continues, introducing the story of Black Spider, of trying to write a happy ending, of reuniting with Ziyi Zhang, though nothing changes in their relationship.
		Seeing EROS, in which Wong Kar Wai’s segment is first, immediately after 2046 isn’t a good idea, because it only exaggerates out how fetishistic the director’s motifs are.

	Eros (2005)
		The first film is good, the second is amusing, and the third is bewilderingly bad.
		All three films are supposed to deal with the subject of eroticism, and all do - after a fashion.
		As is usual for a Wong Kar-Wai film, there's not much of a plot, and without ample time to develop the longing between Zhang and Hua, "The Hand" resonates less than it probably could.

		"Eros" begins with Kar Wai's "The Hand," a wonderful story of the unrequited love dividing and yet forever linking a naive Hong Kong tailor and the libertine courtesan who buys his dresses.
		Filmed by Soderbergh in fl-and-white noir, Downey is a whining patient recalling a failed romance while his disinterested psychiatrist finds something more interesting out the window.
		The segment I understand the least is Italian director Antonioni's "The Dangerous Thread of Things." A couple quarrel in Italian, he has sex with the neighbor, she dances naked on the beach...

	Eros (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The Wong and Antonioni films pack an erotic charge, while the Soderbergh, the shortest of the three, is an amusing skit about a man (Robert Downey Jr.), who visits a psychiatrist (Alan Arkin).
		Wong's film, the one without nudity -- and the only one that doesn't need it to keep things interesting -- is the longest and most substantial of the three, about a young tailor (Chang Chen) who makes a delivery at a call girl's apartment.
		The Soderbergh film, "Equilibrium," has Downey as a 1950s advertising man suffering from career stress and from a recurring dream in which he wakes up in bed with a woman and watches her get into the bath.

		So of the 2 times a field from one film frame is visible the first time the chrominance part of the field is from the previous film frame.
		Then when the fields of the next film frame are 3 times shown the first time the chrominance part is again not updated and lagging one film frame behind.

	Eros - Movie Review
		A triptych of short films, all on the subject of eroticism, sounds tantalizing, so it's too bad none of the shorts contained in Eros actually hits its mark.
		What they manage in their individual shorts in Eros are but minor variations on themes and aesthetics already well explored in their own full-length films.
		Though the least erotic, Eros' choicest moments come through in Soderbergh's comedic, 1950s setpiece "Equilibrium." For his piece, the director chose a luminously stark fl-and-white palette, crisscrossed with light and shadow.
