The Pillow Book (1995)
Country: NL/FR/GB
Technical: col 126m
Director: Peter Greenaway
Cast: Ewan McGregor, Vivian Wu
Synopsis:
A girl grows up with the practice of painting on skin, and when she reaches maturity the creation of her own 'pillow book' is inextricably bound up with her own literary, painterly and sexual development.
Review:
Greenaway went exotic with this uneasy mix of western and eastern artistic elements - and bodies. The results are as dry as the paint, and not in the least bit erotic.
