Ultimately Boring

What the bleep was Jean Eustache thinking when he directed "Le Cochon"?! I mean, I respected him until now, but this crossing between "Le Sang des Betes" and "Guinea Pig" has really nothing to offer whatsoever.l: watching Andy Warhol's "Empire" four times non-stop is more interesting than this... but one should have respect for its experimental value. A pig from its slaughter to your table plate: quite a way to go!
