Hardcore (1979, Paul Schrader)


From the man that wrote Taxi Driver. The daughter of a devoutly religious Calvinist goes missing. He goes looking for her in the world of pornography and the sex industry. The nicest thing I can say about it is that it was made over a decade before the far superior 8MM. The film is entertaining enough but the ending is a severe anti-climax after some very vanilla sex.
2.5/5
