The Big Shave
This is so weird and I actually love it? The blood at first looks real on his face and I find that cool but as more and more goes down the drain it just looks like paint mixed with water. I also find hilarious everyone thought it was gonna be his pubic area (same)

incredibly disturbing yet powerful short film, given its symbolic meaning. an early work of legend martin scorsese, definitely unnerved me

i can’t even begin to explain how much i loved this. it’s genius and perfectly disturbing. the use of the soft jazz music makes you even more uncomfortable with what you’re watching. this short film portrays obsession and self destruction in the best of ways.

7.2 - definitely made my stomach turn. Super visceral for being only 5 minutes. Surprised Scorsese hasn’t ever done a true horror movie.

Horrific, tense, shocking, and brilliant, “The Big Shave” is amazing. Scorsese is truly a genius. 9/10

This jazzy ambient horror gave me one of the most uncomfortable watches and I loved it. Watching the slow escalation, knowing what’s to come did something so intense in such a simple way that I loved it. Made my skin crawl a little. Art. Shoutout TCM.

Scorsese is already developing the eye and ear that makes his best films so memorable—the set is the whitest bathroom you’ve ever seen, and it will soon become clear why he chose that color.

The meaning in this is wonderful, the execution, weird but it just works. What a great message
