Review of Disco Pigs

Disco Pigs (2001)
9/10
A deep and arty film.
18 January 2005
I happened to perceive Disco Pigs as a deep and arty film. It managed to portray a priceless and rare love between two people and the consequences of such an emotional love. It's not a 'go happy' film and this is what I found was one of its more original components of which there was many. A 'happy' film doesn't make a good film.

The acting was beautiful by the two main characters who seemed to have reached deep with-in themselves to act parts like these.

The dark and murky scenes gave an overall dark atmosphere however the dark yet picturesque scenes created a personal sense of awe at the film. The script, acting and background all combined together to make a deep interpretation of this apparent intuitive love that I found manages to grip you inside.

The high use of dialect made a little of the film hard to understand but this also gave it a sense of culture.

It was seen by me late at night on national TV. Perhaps not a sociable film I might not have enjoyed it so much if I were with someone. The portrayal of the extreme love between the two main characters almost made me feel jealous about missing out on a strong friendship like that with someone.

Even though the ending wasn't what I expected it or even what I wanted it to be it was still enough to make me want to purchase the film and research reviews and information about it.
