There was no sex in the first 30 minutes.
All of the sex scenes were in the latter part of the film. And if you did turn it off at the 30 minutes you missed a treat.

I would think after the summary of the movie it would be a clue if its your cup a tea or not. It's performances are more powerful than any real violence, like most of his movies they seem to not have any real beginning to end formula just a slice out of the life of the characters or so hidden message. I am not a fan of violence when its just there for no reason but sometimes its crucial to the reality of the film. If you want a real movie it has to feel real. Maybe you dont like feeling like the characters he displays but you cant say it wasnt as close to real performances as anyone can imagine. I am glad I watched the film to get a view on a world I would never want to be in and maybe not to just write off people wired wrong from the beginning but most of all that all people deserve love.
I loved the line I want the same thing you want in reference to love or her version of it. -

I don't understand why everyone is so dismissive about people and their opinions if it doesn't favor the film. If someone came here and said "This movie was great!", nobody would ask him/her to explain. If someone says it sucked it would be nice to know why, but theres no reason to come with hostility towards the person for just stating how they felt about the movie.
IMO, the movie was weird and twisted but that was the intent. The piano teacher was a total bitch and I don't understand why her student would want her in the first place but maybe he himself has S and M tendencies that she brought out of him at the end. I felt bad for her because theres nothing wrong with thinking and wanting something, as long as it's done safely and with someone who shares the same desire. It got all screwed up because she didn't want to explain to him about her fantasies and just thought writing it all down would help. Instead, he was disgusted and then confused and ending up raping her. And then with her crazy azz mother.this movie was a trip and a half. But I did hate the ending. No conclusion for me.

I was repulsed by the film also. Who can forget the gratuitous hockey scene. It made me want to puke too. Cache and White Ribbon are wonderful even great films, but this film is just plain rubbish. This is probably the most abusive, most disturbing film I've seen since Salo:120 Days of Sodom. I will never watch that film again but at least I respect that film as being a great work of art eventhough I despise it. But this film has no redeeming artistic merit whatsoever. I'm not surprised that he admired Pasolini's work. So did Greenaway, but you don't here about him very much these days.

!!THE FOLLOWING MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS!!
You're totally right, the film is filth and disgust being passed off as art. But, it's not art at all. It's one of the most disturbing films I've ever seen and I hated it!
I'll be honest, the only reason I watched it was because I was feeling horny, read that this is an exotic, artsy film, thought I'd give it a try, because I like movies about teachers, older-younger relationships, and forbidden love. And, seeing as this film supposedly contained those elements, I thought I might like it. But, since I'm a romantic above all, I just hated this film! This is not about loveit's not even erotic! It's grotesque! Becauseand this is the kickerthere was nothing AND I MEAN NOTHING! likable about the main character! She is a disgrace of a person! And, what's worse is that she ended up being even more unlikable than at the beginning! If she ended up a nice person near the end, my feelings for this film might have been different. But, I can't like a movie about a callous nut-job like her, especially when it involves love and sex! And, the fact that her boy-toy ended up disturbed tooand brutalwas nothing less than awful!
This film is gross filth! Oh, and did I mention that she tries to make-out with her own mother at one point? Yup. This film is pure garbage.
The only good thing about it might be that the people who might be able to relate to her struggles (though hopefully not act like she did) will feel a bit understood when seeing this film.
Please excuse typos/funny wording; I use speech-recognition that doesn't always recognize! -

MyMovieRomance, I'm astonished that you call this "filth" when you admit that you were seeking more or less soft-core porn, which is what many of us would consider filth not because of sexual content but because it's just exploitation it has no emotional or intellectual or psychological honesty.
This is not about love
You're absolutely right. But nothing in the promos or the synopsis suggested that it would be.
This movie makes clear that humans are an extremely complex mix of light and dark, and that when we fail to acknowledge that truth we do a lot of damage. Erika hasn't found a healthy way to deal with her rage, aggression, and pain just like 90% of the world, which is why humans are still struggling with war, poverty, addiction, bullying, and all other forms of displaced aggression.
