Laggies: Lynn Shelton’s Film Blends a Coming-of-Age Story With a Quarter-Life Crisis
Laggies is a fantastic movie, filled with down-to-earth characters, transcendent themes, and witty comedy
LOVE EXERCISE
In this video, half-naked models do the “love exercise”, one at a time. Many small doll faces are glued to their bodies. The doll faces are both male and female, their lips puckered as if they are about to kiss. There appears a yellow cupid, controlled by the videographer (Takata). He gives instructions such as “Make this one and this one kiss!” to the models, and they need to contort their bodies in order to make the two chosen faces kiss. For some identified “couples” however, the task is impossible no matter how hard the models struggle. Ignoring their agony, the cupid whimsically continues to make unreasonable requests.
