Actor defends graphic horror film that left viewers swooning

The star of a horror film that caused many viewers to pass out has defended the film. Watch the trailer here:

Titanium premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in July, with screenwriter and director Julia Ducournau winning the Palme d’Or – the festival’s top prize.

However, the plot and graphic scenes of the film proved too difficult for many viewers, some coming out of theaters and others not because they had already passed out.

The synopsis for Titanium – which means “titanium” in French – simply reads: “Titanium: A metal highly resistant to heat and corrosion, with alloys with high tensile strength, often used in medical prostheses due to its pronounced biocompatibility . “

Suffice to say, it doesn’t really give you the full picture of what you can expect to see.

The film stars Agathe Rousselle as Alexia, a woman who wears a titanium plate in her head after being injured in a car accident as a child.

Alexia then had sex with a vintage Cadillac and naturally got pregnant.

“How do you know a car got them pregnant?” I hear you ask. Well, they start to secrete motor oil through their vagina, and eventually they give birth to a titanium baby.

Oh, and on top of that, Alexia also has a nasty murderous streak, which means that aside from the intersection of the automobile and the erotica, there are plenty of grisly deaths to contend with.

The violence isn’t limited to others either, with Alexia breaking her nose continuously hitting him on a sink in one memorable scene.

Either way, Rousselle defended the film, arguing that the shock it caused is a reflection of societal sexism.

Speaking to The Times, she said: “First of all, she’s a female character and a director. Like, end of story. It’s just that.

“If it had been a male director – Tarantino, Cronenberg, anyone – it would have been less surprising. And we’re so used to men being violent and making violent movies. It’s sort of a time for men to know that women can be violent too. “

Upon hearing that people had come out after the broken nose scene, the 33-year-old said: “It’s a shame. Because that’s the last thing that’s super hard to watch, and the next hour is pretty good. “

And, while the movie may be painful to watch, Rousselle revealed that it was even more painful to do, as she dislocated one shoulder, injured her hips, and Actually broke his nose while filming.

She said, “I basically had a chiropractor on set all the time. “

So stop complaining about your little blackouts and vomiting, okay?
