1997 · Film · ★ 5.7
Released in 1997, Sex & Violence is a comedy and animation film directed by Bill Plympton, running about 8 minutes.
What it’s about. In eight minutes, animator Bill Plympton gives us 24 vignettes: seven are clearly about sex, 10 about violence, and seven others deal with human frailties, particularly the body as it ages. There are three stories of persons with confused priorities (including a guy tying his shoe while parachuting); the world's first phone sex; and a clever, if dangerous, way to find a lost key. Except for the titles of each sketch and a couple of jokes that turn on noise, these are visual trips into the psyche of men, women, God, animals, and Time (the enemy of us all).
How it landed. With an audience score of 5.7/10, Sex & Violence has drawn a solid, mixed-to-positive response.
