GORE VIDAL'S CALIGULA!

What do Courtney Love, Karen Black, sexy Benicio Del Toro and Helen Mirren in a bizzare, elaborate coiffure worthy of an 80's Patti Labelle have in common? This movie! Looks fascinating!

Great stuff. This was made a few years ago for the Venice Biennale, I believe. This is the entire 5 minute movie. Courtney Love is Caligula!

I thought it was actually coming out. What a nutty idea! I love the cum moisturizer and metallic dildos! --LB

No, it's by Italian artist Francesco Vezzoli. He uses international stars in his faux film productions. They showed this at the Whitney Biennial last year.

More about it here:

The cum moisturizer was in the original "Gore Vidal's Caligula" in the '70s, by the way. I always thought they'd gotten that idea FROM Bunny.

This was featured in the WHITNEY MUSEUM's BIENNIAL COLLECTION last year.

A HIGHLY PRESTIGIOUS honor for any artist. This is a trailer to a fake remake of CALIGULA.
