✗ SKIP — Not worth it
The Blood Oranges
1997 · 1h 45m · Drama, Romance
IMDb
4.6
A 4.6 IMDb score is a massive red flag, and this 1971 arthouse oddity about sexual manipulation and group dynamics isn't salvaged by its provocative premise. Skip it unless you're a completist of '70s experimental cinema—otherwise, your evening will be better spent literally anywhere else.
Plot
Cyril and Fiona, a free-wheeling married couple, travel to a tropical coastal town to follow their sexual fantasies. Cyril is a manipulator. There, they meet another couple, Catherine and Hugh, and their three children. Hugh is a one-armed photographer who specializes in nude photographs of peasant women. Soon, they decide to live together and an erotic atmosphere develops between them.
