Review

9 Songs captures the zeitgeist of turn-of-the-millennium young lovers: British pop/rock, careful fiddling with medium-level drugs, and passionate, self-soaking sex with loose strings attached. The film is groundbreakingly sexually explicit for a mainstream film, and the director Michael Winterbottom (24 Hour Party People) manages to some degree to narrate his otherwise simple love story through nothing but sex scenes and concert clips. It's something of an achievement, really, especially taking into account that the film maintains its artistic relevance and never feels exploitative or campy. There is solid, brave acting from the two leads.
