EXCLUSIVE: Noe to shoot his 'pornographic melodrama' in 3-D (HWT)
By Wiretap Staff
Gaspar Noe, the filmmaker whose movies - including "Irreversible" and its depiction of a brutal rape - have spawned much controversy and a cult fan base, is turning his lens on porn.
The maverick director told Screen at the beginning of the Cannes Film Festival last year that he was hatching a "joyful porn movie - a joyful movie with explicit sex."
Sources now tell Wiretap that Noe's joy of sex, or "pornographic melodrama," will be shot in 3-D.
What is also being referred to as "an apologia for vice" will likely be handled by Noe's longtime collaborators, Wild Bunch.
The director, whose "Enter The Void" ran in competition at the last Cannes, will screen that film in Sundance this month.
