MCT:April 4, 2008I know that Fuller isn't know for subtlety, but this was really too melodramatic and filled with unnecessary exposition. On the plus side there were some pretty badass moments like the first scene and the one where the main character stuffs cash down this woman's throat.

MCT:December 27, 2007I can't express how provocative I thought this amazing text was. This is the first Sam Fuller film I have seen and I must say it is already one my favourite films of all time.
Fuller's use of high and low techniques within the realm of artistic endeavour and photography obviously echoes his personal dichotomy. The film's narrative is a basic melodrama combined with sexual deviance and social restrictions. One scene that springs to mind that best displays this combination is the one where the protagonist, a prostitute who was drunk proceeds to slouch over a female mannequin dressed in an army uniform. If there is any that could be slapped with the 'ahead of it's time' cliche, it is Sam Fuller's the Naked Kiss. -

A strange film, wondered why it was in the Criterion collection, but a really good watch. The disturbing tale of the guy with imperfections, the woman who is imperfect and turning a new leaf. You're always wondering whether it was true she changed, the whole film is flawed seemingly, but it's that makes it a class above most imperfect films.

Probably you didn't watch this, It's a B-movie, adored by directors like Tarantino and Scorsese. It's a Samuel Fuller work.
This film is disturbing, controversial, a punch at the stomach with beautiful score, cinematography, acting. Great constructions of characters and a shocking, really shocking twist.
His beauty exists in its imperfections.
Watch it as soon as you can! -
MCT:October 31, 2006Wow. Of all the directors I've "discovered" this year, I think Fuller's been the most exciting. Thank you Mr Scorsese.
