La marge
“Walerian Borowczyk, one of the greatest erotic filmmakers to ever do it, makes a LAST TANGO IN PARIS riff starring Warhol superstar Joe Dallesandro and Emmanuelle herself, Sylvia Kristel. Featuring a wall-to-wall soundtrack of ’70s bangers from 10cc, Elton John, and Sailor, and the best use of Pink Floyd’s ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond’ ever put on film.” — Clyde F, postproduction
Directed by Walerian Borowczyk • 1976 • France
Starring Sylvia Kristel, Joe Dallesandro, André Falcon
One of director Walerian Borowczyk’s most haunting and psychologically complex films, LA MARGE (“The Margin”) stars Joe Dallesandro as Sigismond, a happily married businessman who embarks on an intense affair with a sex worker (Sylvia Kristel of EMMANUELLE fame) while on a business trip to Paris. When he receives devastating news from back home, Sigismond throws himself further into a sordid world of sex, grief, and obsession. Borowczyk conjures gorgeous, dreamlike images set to an evocative soundtrack that includes Elton John, Pink Floyd, 10cc, and Chopin.
