For today's Foreign Film Friday, we're going up north to Canada - French Canada! Today's black-and-white exploration into isolation is our film of the day, so get your subtitles on and start watching The Little Girl Who Was Too Fond of Matches.
The Little Girl Who Was Too Fond of Matches is a drama from Simon Lavoie about a young woman who lives with her dad in isolation in the woods. He dies and she is forced to fend for herself in a world that she knows nothing about. Before her father dies, we get to see him totally nude! This zaddy is played by Jean-François Casabonne who has a delightful derriere when he plays a record naked.
We see his penis when he's on the floor as well as when he hangs himself. It's an awful way to go, but thankfully he's naked! Check out those black-and-white balls. The Little Girl is fond of matches, but we're fond of his dick and balls!
