Spent today listening to Terence Stamp’s memoir, The Ocean Fell into the Drop, and very logically ended up here.
It’s interesting that he’s playing a character who’s a tantric sex guru (Stamp’s book talks about his own experience with precisely this and his journey through understanding yoga, meditation, breath, voice, spirituality, sexuality, etc.)
Anyways, what to make of Bliss…kind of a cheap title and cover for a movie that has a lot more purpose and substance than it lets on, but maybe that’s actually a clever move to bait someone looking for a cheap run of the mill erotic thriller into learning something meaningful.
To me it felt like a film that had something honest to say about transcending sex and integrating love and intimacy…healing, learning, forgiving, revealing. It has a serious tone, with some oddball moments. Just had to laugh when Baltazar started name dropping his other clients and reading their files to Jospeh. Like ok!! Confidentiality, be damned!
