Berlin Awards: There's no disputing bad taste, especially in big film festivals.

By Alex Deleon

Films in International Competition were adjudicated  by a Jury presided over by ace German director Tom Tykwer. There's no disputing bad taste, especially in big film festivals.

Golden Bear, BEST FILM TOUCH ME NOT ..AAAaaaarrrrgh !!

The ugliest most sickening most repulsive and perverted  film of all time -- shot in amateuristic manner like a home movie on masturbation. A basket case of a movie that goes from bad to worse as screen time progresses. Not even worth walking out on. let alone walking in on. Not to be touched with a ten foot pole unless you're on the Berlin film Juty

Silver, Jury Prize- Twarz (MUG) -- ugh.

If you wish you had a new face this is not the movie for you. Even your mother won't love you anymore.. As an alternative check out the Japanese masterpiece "The face of another", Teshigahara, 1966, and give this one a pass.

Silver, Best Director. Wes Anderson: Isle of Dogs.

Stop motion K9  movies are not my cup of tea so I gave it a pass. I'll wait for Budapest Hotel number 2.

Best actress: Ana Bron. Los Herederos (N.C. Didn't see it.)

Best Actor. Anthonly Bajon, La Priere (N.C. Didn't see it.)

Best Sreenplay, Museo. Manuel Alcala, and Alonso Ruizpalacios

 Terribly wandering screenplay very derivative of similar heist films.to the point that it feels like plagiarusm. Butbsince it was made innMexico who cqres?  Zero. Nothing novel to say. Not even bad.
