Title: Correct. . .four stars for a bit more than 2/3 excellent
Review: Two well-crafted erotic tales sandwiched around a cartoon intermission directed by Steven Soderbergh.The first, and best of the short films, "The Hand" is both moving and erotic. The third, "The Dangerous Thread of Things" is muddled. . .but it steams, and thus deserves its place in an collection of erotica. The second, well. . .(Sssh. I enjoyed it. It made me laugh. It is insightful. It is a sketch of two interesting, memorable characters. But here's my theory: the producers asked each filmmaker to make something erotic. Soderbergh simply misheard and made something neurotic.)Each film is introduced by captivating, surreal animation--a tie that binds the collection--a joy to watch themselves.
