Irreversible - 2002
I watched this film last year because I am a fan of Vincent Cassel and he is amazing in this. A vast mojority of the dialogue is improvised and the cast is awesome. But this is one of those movies that once you see it, you never forget it. Told in reverse this movie will make you angry and sad and feeling dirty.
This French thriller chronicles the unspeakable horror of rape and the aftermath of revenge. When a woman is brutally violated, her angered boyfriend and ex-boyfriend team up to track down the rapist and take justice into their own hands. Albert Dupontel, Vincent Cassel and Monica Bellucci star, and Gaspar Noé (I Stand Alone) directs. Nominated for the Golden Palm Award at the 2002 Cannes Film Festival.
It is violent, dark, disturbing, depressing, and honest.
