Bare

Bare, A film about a young Woman, Sarah (Dianna Argon), who's having serious hardships in her life From Beginning to the end. Until she meets Pepper, (Paz De La Huerta), who drags Sarah into her world of lowlifes, Stripping, Drugs and Hustling. This Movie directed by Nathalia Leite surely disappoints. Because I wanted to know the fates of the two characters, who emotionally and romantically gets attached quickly. Unfortunately, It leaves no resolution for them.

My Rating: 6.0

You can feel how the story portrays something real, unlike the superficial world we all pretend to play in. Although the people around her seem to be in control of their lives, thus knowing best; no one there is even close to noticing what is really going on right in front of them; yet the main character breaks these bounds. Judging anything, to include this movie one should be careful not to fall into the same trap as the majority of the people in script, because everything is valid, and we must look deep inside where we are not comfortable and see the real beauty in front of us.

Dianna Argon played her role in this movie wonderfully, always in tune with what I believe the director had intended. A promising career no doubt.

I cannot believe PDLH is allowed in movies, she looks like hell, and gives the most cliched bogus performance ever. Hideous. It is sad to see an addict just be herself, awful-looking. You've seen this movie 100 times, don't bother. It makes no sense that a blond babe would even give the tramp a second glance.

Came across this one by chance and decided to give it a try. This is a nicely made coming of age story that takes place in a small dead- end town in Nevada. We have seen stories like that many times before but this one still stood out for me for its feel.

The pace is just right so the film never gets dull despite the fact that it's a slowburner. The camera work is absolutely wonderful and definitely elevates certain scenes. Another thing worth mentioning is the soundtrack. If you love indie/alternative type of music (Chromatics, Part Time) you will be very pleased. The songs perfectly match the scenes. The one that especially stands out in my opinion is the desert scene with the snake, everything comes together nicely there making it almost hypnotic.

The acting is solid. Dianna Agron (The Family, I Am Number Four) and Paz de la Huerta (Enter the Void, A Walk to Remember, Boardwalk Empire) work well together and it's nice to see Dianna Agron doing something different and daring from her previous roles. The stand- out performance would have to be Chris Zylka though (Kaboom, The Leftovers), an obvious scene stealer in this one.

If you are a fan of indie films then I would recommend Bare. Just let yourself slowly be immersed in it and it will take you away a little for those 90 minutes.

I should have taken notice of the "real" reviews! I didn't really feel in the mood for an action movie or something which would need my deep attention, so I thought I'd give this a go. This movie was just bad. I can't see the point of making it except that whoever wrote the story, whoever directed it, whoever it appeals to must have had, or know a couple of women in that situation! I doubt it would appeal to a wider audience. The only people, women, it may appeal to are those who either lead such a life, want such a relationship, have been in that business, use drugs, are Bi or Lesbian... Guys, don't even think of wasting time with this!
