The Wicker Man

1973 d. Robin Hardy
My 2 cents: A crunchy outer layer of sometimes silly musical weirdness covers a deliciously shocking chewy central hubric tragedy. Seargeant Howie goes to Summerisle in search of a missing young girl, and finds himself back a few centuries, religion-wise. The residents of Summerisle follow the principles of paganism, much to the shock and consternation of Sgt Howie. I found this a VERY audacious undertaking. I nearly laughed myself off the sofa when the naked, singing girl started spanking herself. (I can't even believe I typed that, now.) But the questions this film raises if you're willing to think about it's approach to Christianity are pretty fascinating. As a non-christian in a very Christian society, I found it very interesting and am not suprised at all that the film has been hacked to bits before a US release was possible.

A special note to those under 18: I HAD NO IDEA ABOUT THE NUDITY!!! I sincerely hope no one got grounded, due to this choice.
