      IF YOU CAN SEE THE FAKE NUNUS, CLAP YOUR HANDS

      1) Alibi - 8/10 I liked It, Cuck stuff was amazing

      2) Double Trouble - 8/10 This One Was Great, Two Couples Are Cheating & Lying And Everything Was Fun.

      3) Two Hearts And A Hut - 7/10 It's A Story For Adults With A Humour For 4 Year Olds.

      Putting That Aside I Think It Was Okay But I'm Giving 7 Only For The Costumes & Whatever They Did With Music Was Awesome

      4) Jolly Bangs - 8/10 What It The Inception Of Erotica? It's A Story In A Group Of Stories & It Also Cantains Two Stories Which Were Great The Train Scene Was Very Hot.

      This Is The Best One For Me. The Girl Was Also Hot.

      5) Whatever It's Name Is - 7/10 I Don't Remember It's Name But It Worked. More Than The Virginity Stuff, I Was Interested In The Tension Between The Photographer & Oldman's Wife But Brass Didn't Do Anything With It. He Even Covered Them With Curtains.

      6) Call Me Pig, Because I Like It - 4/10 The Main Lady Is Super Hot But The Story And Gay Stuff Was A Real Turn Off. This Was The Worst One. I Don't Know Why Brass Put It In The Last Place.

      That Makes It An Average Of 7/10 Plus, I'm Not Even Considering The Fact That The Nunus Looked Fake. Brass, What The Fake!!

      An invitation to uninhibited and playful sexual activity.

      Tinto Brass, through his film Fallo! (2003), an erotic anthology composed of six independent episodes, primarily sought to convey a message celebrating sexuality as a source of joy, freedom, and transgression, in opposition to hypocrisy and social conformity. The title itself, a play with the word "Fallo!" (which means "Do it" both as an imperative and a phallic reference in Italian slang), emphasizes an invitation to uninhibited and playful sexual activity.

      Inspired by Boccaccio's style in the Decameron, Brass considers himself a modern-day Boccaccio of Italian cinema, aiming to create a lighthearted and entertaining work that explores universal themes through sex experienced joyfully and without inhibitions. He emphasized the formal difference between eroticism and pornography, attacking film critics who praise "sick" and "disturbing" erotic films and condemning those which present sex as a source of joy and pleasure. He chose "real" and authentic actresses (with natural pubic hair and cellulite instead of silicone bodies) to promote authenticity over artifice.

      The six episodes of this film portray ordinary people playfully and consensually exploring fetishes, fantasies, perversions, and relational dynamics (such as voyeurism, infidelity, cuckolding, exhibitionism, and transactional sex), emphasizing how sex is a terrifying act of freedom because it challenges social norms.

      Brass ridicules the structures of television, entertainment, and bourgeois hypocrisy, using eroticism to desecrate figures and institutions (for example, by dedicating the film to Monica Lewinsky as a symbol of rebellion).

      Fallo! Focuses on the pleasures of sexuality and the power of female eroticism, with plots that highlight deceit, betrayal, and malice, but always with an empathetic and humorous perspective on women.

      In short, it's clear that Tinto had a lot of fun making this film, addressing universal themes through varied settings in an episodic format, promoting a voyeuristic (he himself appears as a voyeur in the final episode) and nonconformist eroticism, influenced by thinkers like Wilhelm Reich.

      Brass is always Brass

      Fistful of erotic short films, just like "P.O. Box Tinto Brass" (1995). Half porno, half comedy - but really stupid comedy with strong flavor of italian 70-s movies. Now maestro Brass absolutely spitted on psychological stuff like "Miranda" or "Voyeur". Actresses looks like real "girls next door" - with cellulite and unshaved arm-pits. Don't look "Fallo!" if you waiting something from this film - it's for Tinto real fans only! So, Brass is always Brass! By the way, 'Fallo!' in italian means 'Oops!', not what you've just think.

      More Brass

      Like the earlier P.O. Box Tinto Brass, Fallo! is another anthology of whimsical short erotic stories from maestro Tinto Brass, and like that earlier film, there's really very little to be said about it; the stories are for the most part very, very silly and dumb, and are really just an excuse for very pretty shots of beautiful people having sex. On the whole I enjoyed it more than P.O. Box; for one, the cinematography was more beautiful, and the lush, modern coloring really does Brass a whole lot of good. And second, it does away with the pointless and irritating framing device. A couple of stories - most of all Dupla Confusão ("Double Trouble") and Casos ("Jolly Bangs") - have enough subtext and wit to raise a smile, but the rest are complete nonsense, and Brass knows it. In his feature films he sometimes tried for more ambitious messages, for better (Cosi Fan Tutte) or for worse (Monamour), but in this case it's trashy erotica all the way through. Might be fun for Brass fans but not much to write home about.

      Me piaze (I like it)

      Very funny film composed by six short stories just like "Miranda", "The Voyeur" all by Tinto Brass and some of their habitual cast or crew.

      You can find an excellent use of the came, light and the red color that is seen in nearly the six stories, and the nasty/loose girls ready for pleasure. Do you like being observed? Another interesting matter that this movie includes. The last story is definitely the best of the movie. The name: Dime porca que me piaze!!! To conclude. It is Definitely a movie for Tinto Brass fans.

      Non fans: Your choice. 8 out 10. Andres.
