Blue Rita (Jess Franco, 1977)

You see with Jess Franco the movie genres become an erotic mishmash that makes you lose yourself in there. Blue Rita is a spy movie. But most certainly it much more than a simple spy movie. Blue Rita is a shrine to female power and eroticism. All those gorgeous naked bodies at this amazing nightclub evoke a certain type of feeling, a feeling of things forgotten and buried deep underneath. Blue Rita is a movie that understands cinema in that crazy way, that eccentric way that makes the experience a visceral journey. All this beauty, that impeccable beauty that derives from those erotic dances and those deeply mesmerizing moments that the film is filled with. Blue Rita might be a spy movie, but understands its vocabulary as something that comes from the heart and the body. It's like this experience, deep and profound as it is, answers to things that we understand with our sexuality. It's our own sexuality that is been pictured in that movie. And the funny thing is that the movie walks a road that is most weird and odd. The décor, the faces, the dances, the perfume, the smell. All together form an alliance that is here to bring to the spectator an experience that can be understood through the long journey of sexual arousal. Jess Franco was a master of erotic images. He was a master of the eccentric. He was a master in his own art, an art that comes here to levitate you from the ground and take you to another level, another dimension, another reality. Blue Rita is a high power. A power that comes at night and takes you by the hand and shows you a thousand new and exciting dreams. There is no way that you can escape the sexual experience of that movie. There is no way that you can escape that sexual journey that the film offers. Blue Rita is one of those movies that makes you a slave to the beauties that they offer. Because no matter how hard you try to explain the impact of those dances, the impact of those naked bodies there will always be another thing that you have forgotten to talk about. Because to this experience, the experience is going down to your erotic zones. It's so stimulating to watch that movie that you are forgetting everything else in your life. Blue Rita is a wet fantasy. A wet fantasy that no one else except Jess Franco could have made. You see the images are slipping from the language and the words. They come so aggressively towards you that you barely can sustain them. Blue Rita is one of Jess Franco's movies that are here to celebrate the one that hides. It's a movie that is here to endure all the evils of this world. Blue Rita is a journey. Blue Rita is a triumph. Blue Rita is the fantasy that you are hiding beneath your politically correct façade.
