After Blue (Dirty Paradise) has been described as the best lesbian acid Western ever made. This is unquestionably true.
Most folks expect films to make sense and follow certain conventions. This one does not. It defies most categories---expect maybe "art house".
Watch it after consuming your substance of choice before entering this realm.
Watch it while making love to someone you may or may not love.
DON'T THINK ABOUT IT. Just relax and let the miasma wash over you.
And most of all, keep asking yourself, "Have I killed Kate Bush yet?"

It's kitch, we know. But the photography is exquisite, the music score is solid, and the acting is convincing. The plot gets a bit confusing in the last 30 mins, some events are not very clear, but overall it's a hell of a trip. Recommended if you're into B movies.
OK, this movie shouldn't be watched like a 'normal' movie. It should simply be watched for what it is, namely a piece of art. The scenario, who gives a damn. In most movies I do give a damn, but not in this one. Bertrand Mandico makes it quite clear you shouldn't. I read in another review that one should just let him/herself be immersed in the strange and wondrous universe created by this movie. That hits the nail.
It's a visual masterpiece, full of colours and art. The weirdness of the encounters just makes you laugh. I definitely need to rewatch this on acid.
I especially love the western kind of feeling to it.
This is truly something, instant cult!

In one of his films Woody Allen awoke in a panic gasping "No more Polish women!". He could have had this film - awash with strong Slavic faces - in mind, although the copious quantities of tobacco the sinister coven in wide-brimmed black hats consume betrays it's gallic origins.
It posits that time-honoured fantasy of a future in which only women survive and with the shackles of patriarchy thrown off inevitably turn upon each other.
Awash with hot girl-on-girl action, Freudian symbols like a horse draped in a veil, carnivorous caterpillars, women with hairy arms lasciviously handling guns and lines like "Would you like some purple soup?" it's all so earnest you suspect a leg-pull, and a wanted poster bearing the name 'Kate Bush' certainly indicates that someone's tongue was in their cheek.

So strange that this film names a character after the musician, Kate Bush. It's hard to stay immersed in the film, when every mention of the character makes you think of the musician with the same name. It's so jarring.
This film does feel like it has been influenced to some extent by the film, Barbarella (1968). In that film, the character Durand-Durand (sic) inspired the band name of Duran Duran. So perhaps "Kate Bush" is used as the name of a character in this film, to provide some sort of symmetry?
To the extent that there is a story here ("unearthing some old Kate Bush"), perhaps the moral of the story is that all vinyl fans should play Kate Bush's A side and then turn her over and play her B side?

- WissenswertesLe Monde describes the film as a masterpiece, and Clarisse Fabre writes: "Feminine Western, fantastic, feverish and sensual, After Blue tells, in hollow, the fantasy of a society that would like to start everything from scratch. In After Blue, a veritable planet of breasts, the nudity of hairy bodies takes on an animal turn, sexuality mutates right down to ejaculatory breasts. We dream with our eyes wide open in front of so many finds, puns and agility in making fun of the madness of the world and the permanent war (political, economic, sexual) which seem to undermine all human action." On the other hand, Le Figaro considers the film, from the pen of Etienne Sorin, as being "to be avoided": "After The Wild Boys, Bertrand Mandico draws his inspiration from the science fiction of the 1970s today."
