humorous and beautiful
Simply stunning images. Well-shot, and expertly edited for maximum effect. The shots of the Japanese guys massaging cow’s asses were particularly incredible. Though much of the shock was lost due to the effects of passing time and the condescending commentary, it is still interesting to see (the foie- gras sequence should be enlightening for anyone who still eats the stuff). Mondo Cane may have kicked off the shock-reality genre, but it reads as an interesting exploration of normality, raising questions about difference and anthropological methods. Well worth the two hours…

Mondo Cane
This was a documentary film featured in the book 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die, but I was surprised to find out it was rated the lowest rating by the critics, one out of five stars, so I had to see why that was. Basically the title is translated as “world of dogs”, or alternatively “a dog’s life”, it is not for a reason, and narrated by Stefano Sibaldi this is a documentary without any specific subject, it was made to shock, so it is obviously called a “shockumentary”. Throughout the film are many random images where the filmmakers have travelled around the world and found the surreal, bizarre, upsetting, disgusting, perverted, inhuman and unthinkable things people and cultures do. This includes dogs in a dog pound, a tribe on an island man-hunting, a naval ship with sailors spotting women in boats, a tribes woman breast feeding a baby pig, a poverty stricken tribe that have eaten humans in cannibalism, pigs being beaten and cooked and a dog cemetery with mourners wandering it. There is also an Asian community eating various breeds of dog as meat, newborn chicks painted with coloured dye and dried in an oven to be put inside easter eggs, geese force fed food with a funnel shoved down their throats, and calves being tenderised by massaging and drinking six bottles of beer a day for fattening. You also see women caged and fattened for months to be offered as wives for a dictator, fat women rolling and exercising in a gymnasium and on fat burning machines, various canned insects and animals eaten as restaurant dishes including: grasshopper, honey bees, lava worms, ants, musk rat, rattlesnake, beetles and butterfly eggs; and snakes chosen by a customer to be skinned and eaten. After this there are men making their legs bleed by hitting them with cutting glass and looking like Jesus with barbed wire wrapped around their heads, a womens lifeguard troupe marching on a beach and demonstrating rescuing staged drowning people, birds that live underground, fish living on land and in trees, and thousands of eggs on the ground that will never hatch. Following this we see a sea turtle laying its eggs and heading for sea but dying in heat going the wrong direction, an underwater cemetery full of human skulls and skeletons, sun dried fins on a beach being collected by people with missing limbs, and sharks being fed sea urchins as revenge for killing people which makes them suffocate for days and die. Afterwards is a cemetery museum filled with skull decorations, these skulls and bones being cleaned and repaired by children, a German beer house with drunken stupidity, the drunks walking home, dozing, being violent and dancing on the streets; money being burnt by people as part of a funeral to be “taken” by the deceased, and a boarding house for dying people. Finally is a large cemetery full of wrecked cars, an orchestra playing, a Hawaii travel organisation with women and tourists doing the hula, soldiers dressing as women and dancing, men cutting off live bull heads, hundreds of people running from a bull, men training for bullfighting being charged, and a crashed cargo plane on a hill where tribes people wait for some arrival (of another plane or something). I agree entirely with the critics giving the lowest of low rating for this film, but I have to admit, I did find most of it fascinating to watch, not necessarily in the good way, but I couldn’t take my eyes off, but it was a disgusting documentary. It was nominated the Oscar for Best Music, Original Song for the song “More”. Pretty poor!
