Review of The Strange Colour of Your Bodyโs Tears

The Strange Color of Your Body's Tears is a difficult movie to describe, you will read or hear stuff like "head trip," "fever dream," "orgy of colors," or "fetishized imagery. It's a film that is all about creating a visual and aural feast, not concerned in the least bit about plot, story structure, character development, or even logic. And it's nothing new or groundbreaking. If you go back to the giallo films of Sergio Martino and Dario Argento, pay close attention to the dream sequences. SCYBT is like taking one of those dream sequences and stretching it to an hour and a half. If this in any way tantalizes you then you are in for a treat. It's devotion to this aesthetic sets it apart from the typical, safe cinema that we have today and for that I think it's worth recommending.
