Review: A woman with an unknown past, an unknown name (everyone calls her Miss Jones), and unknown causes sadness lies in the bathroom and fiddles with a razor. The water pours stronger razor for arms, all filled with red and Miss Jones moved to the new location. In a dark room at the table sits a strange little man with a pen and ink. It turns out, we have a kind of mezhmirovogo reception, a little man – an angel, in fact, Secretary Office of the celestial, which determines to heaven or hell. It turns out that Miss Jones is led a righteous life, and even was a virgin at the time of the shaving incident, but all merit undermined suicide. So, go to the Control Panel 666 with a sign “Hell”, citizen. Miss Jones, struck such injustice Angela begs her to return to the ordinary world to taste the forbidden fruit and plenty nakurolesit, since I have nothing to lose now. Like any officer, Angel easily breaks the rules, offering his visitor to select one of the sins. The choice is made, the heroine goes to the living world obsessed with lust.
It would seem, “The Devil in Miss Jones” is an ordinary unremarkable pornography. The narrative is reduced to a gradual transition from one species to the next congress. The number of sex partners and are variable, changing from zero to two, and from M to F, respectively. Everything is quite traditional, but to the same extent and uninteresting: hardcore fans only lazy grin rather quiet scenes, and thin aesthetes disgust pomorschatsya watching unattractive actors with increased hairiness in different places. In general, the typical retro porn, interesting only in the context of the formation of the genre. However, do not want to believe that the great American director Gerard Damiano, author stylish detective “counselee pornosemkah” and existential parable “doubles”, took so empty cinema. It is clear that for the flashy form nontrivial hidden content.
We return to the eyeballs. Miss Jones was trying to ease their suffering, but in the end actually has condemned itself to fester. Without doubt, the director refers to the classical problem of the existence of evil. How could God want people to good and thus allow such misery? Interestingly, the author himself, apparently not decided which group to join the philosophical doctrines. Damiano, if anything, is torn between Leibniz and Voltaire: it first says that we live in the best of all possible worlds and all things evil is directed to the future benefit that have not yet been able to perceive, and the second, in turn, makes fun of the theses of Leibniz, offering a more subjective opinion and reasoning in terms of the individual. In this light, the scene interviews Miss Jones and Angela can be interpreted in two ways: as an attempt to demonstrate the justification of evil subsequent transformation of the life of the heroine and a sarcastic mock-presentation of the theory of the “divine plan.” It also appears, and one of the main disadvantages picture: the issue highlights a rather one-sided, does not reflect the evolution of philosophical thought, not mentioned historically valuable discussion of the ancient Greeks and medieval scholastics.
