The most subversive piece of American art of the last 50 years

Under the Skin
★★★★★ Liked Rewatched

You are born into a cold and unforgiving world where you assume an identity to protect yourself from hostility both interior and exterior.

You do not understand this world. It is loud, it is bright, it is brutal. You do what you are told to survive.

Don’t let this be the start of accepting this shit in your entertainment.
