Review of the 2004 anthology film Eros, composed of three episodes by Antonioni, Soderbergh and Wong Kar-wai. The reviewer finds Antonioni's segment clichéd and disappointing, prefers Soderbergh's hypnotic, black-and-white 'Equilibrium', and praises Wong Kar-wai's 'The Hand'. Notes soundtrack by Caetano Veloso and that the film was presented at Venice and banned in China.

For:Cinephiles, fans of art-house and erotic cinema, film students

 Unlike Antonioni, where everything is made explicit with the aim of achieving an almost screamed sensuality, Soderbergh’s episode is filled with an eroticism that doesn’t exist in strong scenes and leaves a lot to the viewer’s imagination; the result is a continuous crescendo of erotic charge.
