Has anyone on the IC caught this flick? This is the movie where ScarJo plays an alien and gets naked.
It's about an alien who seduces men and harvests them in some way. I didn't really enjoy it right after I finished it, but after some thought, it was really eerie and had some sad scenes... especially the family that drowns in the see and the elephant man almost escaping. I assume she spent so much time on earth that she began to feel empathic and wanted to experience what is was like being a human... except her ? doesn't exist and wasn't able to have sex. The ending was kind of ? up too.
Anyway...

It's dark and slow burning. Some really creepy scenes too.
e.g. apparently this is how humans are harvested?

Come on man!!!! Props on discussing the film, but you're spoiling some of the most interesting elements of it, if you're going to use spoiler tags use that ? for your entire synopsis. What makes this movie engaging is how things are revealed in small chunks at a time, leading to the finale that was beautifully shot.
Quick facts about the film...
*The scenes where Scarlett is seducing men into her car and back to her place were real and done with hidden cameras.
*The guy near the end with elephantitis is a real person.
* Scarlett got a breast reduction to be taken more seriously in her movie roles.
This is a very arty film and deliberately paced, so it's not for everyone, but if you're into indie/esoteric films then this is a definite recommend. One of my favorites of the year.
9 out of 10

I thought a short precis would help the viewer understand and appreciate the film better. There were times I didn't know wtf was going on.

I would have put my ? on her. "But you just said!"

Got you, but it could have been described without giving away the main plot points, you're description is the equivalent of me saying "has anyone seen the sixth sense? It's about this kid who sees dead people, and Bruce Willis plays his therapist, but turns out to be dead too and doesn't realize it."
It's all good though, at least you started this thread, this film deserves discussion. -

She shouldn't have got the breast reduction though

We all waiting for the drug mule movie with morgan freeman
Well... -

They use CGI to put her head on the double's body.
Fast & Furious 7 used body doubles and CGI to shoot Paul Walker's unfinished scenes. -
They using walkers brother to finish Hus scenes who looks jus like him
-
I have to say it's one of the most original, intriquing and uniquely photographed movies I've seen in a while. Scarlett was amazing
