Camille 2000 (Extended Edition) [Blu-ray]

I rented this on instant because it was showing a four star rating, but I have no idea how it could have gotten such high reviews. I'm pretty open minded about movies, and I can appreciate even a bad movie if it has some redeeming quality. But I just couldn't find one with this movie. It was not much of a story, nor was it particularly erotic. It is one of only handful of movies over the course of watching literally thousands that I could not finish watching. I tried twice, but it was just too boring. So unless you are absolutely with ultra modern 60's home decor (which is about the only interesting part of this movie), I would tell you ignore the high ratings and pass this one up. You will most likely be wasting your money even at the $3 rental fee.

A Dope Enhanced Deepcore Drama! Channel 83 loves Amazon Prime more than any other streamers because they have Audubon Films pictures! This is the best of the best, a dizzy art direction masterpiece that will have you in a state of Eurotrash sedation! We are talking clear plastic chairs, clear plastic needles and clear plastic slave collars. Radley Metzger did a handful of these extra tasty ones and this, outside of Score, may be the tastiest, while all the time in the best taste! Production is Italian in the most outrageous way. Channel 83 says medicate, take it to bed with you, then go out and hunt up the other films from Metzger's Audubon Films on Amazon Prime.

Almost a high budget space opera at times. But, ultimately a there and back again tragedy set in 60s Italy. The bedroom scenes alone are fascinating to watch.Does this appeal to you: High-budget, retro, avant-guard, nudie cutie?If so, put on the incense, get naked, put the lights low, get the bottle of J&B scotch, and watch.

Viewing Camille 2000, made in 1969, in the year 2012 is like traveling through a time warp back to the free-loving, drug-addled Sixties as experienced by the jet set in decadent Europe. The setting is Rome, appropriately, a city long past its peak as the center of an empire, and populated by an elite whose primary endeavor is immediate gratification. The story is fairly straightforward: a relatively "square" businessman arrives in town and becomes smitten with a beautiful pleasure seeking local woman. Conflict develops; she tries living life his way, then he tries living life her way. If there is a message, it may be the incompatibility between the old social mores and those of the Sixties.The most interesting elements of Camille 2000, for viewers in the year 2012, will be the time capsule look back at the Sixties, and the cinematography. Director Radley Metzger and his crew created some lush sets and costumes, and then used inventive camera techniques to capture some of the most explicit action, such as filming reflections and changing focus in sync with a character's breathing. Some of this may come across as cheesy to a current-day viewer, and certainly there is much more explicit action filmed these days in graphic close-up, but as a portrait of the times Camille 2000 has its appeal.Daniele Gaubert is at the absolute pinnacle of female beauty in this movie; she is simply a joy to behold. Whether it was a facial close-up or a full-body shot in a crowded room, she fully captivated this viewer's attention. More than a few times we get to see her in the altogether, and one would be hard pressed to find a single flaw anywhere on her. As for her acting, I would term it adequate for the role. The physical attributes of her character are the greatest challenge in the role, and here she succeeds beautifully.I don't think Camille 2000 is going to land on anyone's Top 100 list of all-time great movies, but European cinema buffs and those seeking a flashback to the Sixties should find it amusing.

Didn't like it. Could not get past it being very dated

I purchased this DVD for Camille 2000 and expected to be swept away with the film's lush and sensual sensibilities. Instead, I had to stop watching it 30 minutes into it. The transfer is terrible. It's full of scratches and it's out of focus or taken from a very old film stock. It's truly terrible and felt that I was ripped off because DVDs today have a certain standard for image quality which this one obviously disregarded. It's not worth paying for this. Wait until a better transfer comes along.

I bought this dvd becuse i wanted to listen to Piero Piccioni's scores in film.this is filled with late sixties modern customs and manners.

If you are looking for very dated, very well shot 70's style erotica, this is it. However, if you are a fan of today's style of porn, this will not do it for you, it didn't for me. Story runs very slowly, and is too out there for me.

Splendid transaction - recommended!

This is a film that is visually quite interesting as far as wardrobe goes. Its all very fashionable and Italian. Shot in the late 60's and set in a vaguely futuristic period that time has reduced to just being 1969. It has a softcore euro-porn aspect and a cult soundtrack. The story is not so engaging but that isn't why this film has a cult following. It's really about the incredible outfits and beautiful girls and all the set design with inflatable furniture and Joe Cessare Columbo esque elements.

Poor script, pointless directions, very good photogragrafhy. Some actors have fairly good performance. Some fun. In spite of all it's worth to watch.

This video is too tame and quite boring.

The art direction is amazing. If you like rome and the Argentario, you will find this film fascinating. Actors ham it up but he leading lady is absolutely beautiful.
