She breaks every word down to the syllable, then twists them in a way that seems both incredibly arousing and forbidding. This setup eventually goes sour as Melinda escalates her affairs, hoping to get reactions out of Vic, and Vic gets angrier about how embarrassing those affairs are.ĭe Armas’s performance is dripping in hiss and slink. (Melinda has forged a side deal with a faceless god who allows a steady trickle of very good-looking twunks into her life.) I’m not really sure what is in it for Vic, but the aerial death merchant seems to enjoy Melinda’s existence in his house. Vic and Mel have worked out a shaky arrangement in which Melinda is allowed to have side affairs with younger, ostensibly more exciting young men. You both eavesdrop, but all you get are answers to questions that you still have to figure out yourself.
DEEP WATER MOVIE MOVIE
There’s no explanation of how these two found each other (College? A hotel bar? Hinge?) though the relationship is clearly off, thus creating a movie experience uncannily similar to sitting at a table next to a date that’s gone sideways. Divorce is an option neither one gives much mind to. How could a woman so randy be so mean, Vic wonders back.
How could a man who taught sky robots to murder better be boring, Melinda wonders constantly. That’s not because she’s an ethical pacifist or concerned about the American government’s history of “accidental” civilian casualties, but because Vic is nice and boring. He’s married to Melinda (de Armas), a terminally amorous woman who seemingly hates Vic. Vic (Affleck) is a man who invented a microchip that’s integral to drone warfare he’s become rich off of drone murders. The film drops its audience right in the middle of an odd domestic arrangement. Hopefully your soul mate enjoys Deep Water. Deep Water will make you believe there’s someone out there for everyone. I guess there’s water involved, too, though it is mostly in the form of drinking and is only occasionally deep.įor the most part, though, Deep Water has abandoned thought and logic for horny, unhinged vibes. Sparring around their precocious child, they insult each other with lascivious sighs and purrs that sound like threats.Īlso there’s some light murder. The two real-life exes play a married couple who are equally hot and hateful, and spend a lot of time torturing each other and their New Orleans neighbors.
20th Century Studiosĭirected by Adrian Lyne and starring Ana de Armas and Ben Affleck, Deep Water is an erotic thriller whose sole existence is to seemingly answer all these questions through the power of a saucy, melodramatic cinematic adaptation of a Patricia Highsmith novel. If you notice, there’s a startling lack of water in a movie called Deep Water. What happens on the off-chance you do it anyway? Further, what if you actually enjoy it? Or what if you’re the “crazy” in question?Įnter: Deep Water. Complications of ableist language aside, not engaging in sexual relations with people whose worldview you find to be incompatible with your own has likely averted innumerable personal disasters.īut if no one is having sex with “crazy,” it creates a forbidden unknown, an unanswerable question of what lies beyond the horizon of sanity. Though this saying is firmly entrenched among bro culture, it applies to receptive partners, too.
Passed down from generation to generation is a piece of wisdom that functions both as advice and warning: Do not stick your dick in crazy.
