Le Poeme (1985) *** 1/2 (out of 4) Arthur Bimbaud's poem "The Drunken Boat" is the background to this film, which shows a real autopsy while the narrator reads the poem. Yes, they show a real autopsy so this here will turn off most viewers but if you have a strong stomach then this short is really worth checking out. The film opens with the eye lids being cut off so if you can't handle that then you won't want to stick around until the end. This certainly crosses the lines of good taste but it is extremely well made and quite poetic in its own sick way. From Cult Epics Cinema of Death.
