"Body of Evidence" review

Body of Evidence (1993)

Directed by Uli Edel
Writing credits Brad Mirman

Madonna .... Rebecca Carlson
Michael Forest .... Andrew Marsh
Joe Mantegna .... Robert Garrett
Charles Hallahan .... Dr. McCurdy
Anne Archer .... Joanne Braslow
Willem Dafoe .... Frank Dulaney

Madonna is on trial for murder. She loved a man to death. Her body is a lethal weapon. She used her basic instinct a little too much. Is she really as evil as the prosecution says she is? Did she purposely seek out an old man with a bad heart just so she could rock his world and send him to heaven? Does anybody care how this trial ends up? Of course no one cares! Bring on the Madonna sex!

I have good news for you. Madonna shows us what she's got in three or four scenes of intense Dafoe lovemaking. We get hot wax, handcuffs, car hood sex and various other forms of action. I was not disappointed. As a courtroom drama, "Body of Evidence" is ridiculous. Surprise witnesses, lies, accusations and other things no one cares about. Dafoe needed to blow off some steam between courtroom appearances and needed to closely consult Madonna's body of evidence. As an excuse to stare at Madonna in all her glory, "Body of Evidence" is a fine film. If you're looking for anything else, you've got the wrong movie.

SCORE: 2 out of 4 because Madonna's body is Exhibit A+

Watching this film I understand many things: why Madonna is not a great singer with a great voice, but an excellent manager of herself.
She therefore she is a woman with little talent (the only talent she has ... is that of having fucked all the men who have favored her career).
Some of her called her: the greatest whore in the world of entertainment! And maybe you are right! Over the course of her long and glorious career she has been able to sell her hypersexualized image to make money and become what she is today: a true sex icon.
So why are we surprised by this film? After all, it is an erotic film, where the most beautiful scenes are those where Madonna appears naked, with her beautiful tits and her bushy pussy; who first mounts old Andrew Marsh and then decides to have the excited Willem-Harry Osborn ride him. And then it is useless to be scandalized and mount useless criticisms on this film; whoever saw it did it just to see naked Madonna fucking!
Because what do you think De Laurentiis asked him when he called her about the film? "Madonna, you have to smile, make silly jokes, but mostly you have to strip, show your tits and ass and fuck with Willem Dafore! Because the public just wants that from you!" .
Ask yourself why this film had so little success in the cinema, but when it came out on videotape, was there a queue to rent it?
And 90% were men ...
Because that's what Madonna is: a luscious, buttery, sex doll created to please men ...
