BOY MEETS GIRL

1994, UK

In Boy Meets Girl the female antagonist suffers from one-dimensional characterization and a lack of any clear motivation; "I'm not a vigilante", she claims, "I am just a casual observer."

Her high moral ground would, however, seem to indicate otherwise.

After taking a man home for a supposed one-night stand, she drugs him, and he wakes up naked and tied to a chair in a black room of indeterminate size.

While filming him as part of her "ongoing research", she cruelly interrogates and chastises him for everything from smoking cigarettes to not reading enough books.

She deflowers his "sacred hole" with a dildo, while making a heavy-handed statement about how "men don't own violence".

This is clearly a man's idea of what a woman's revenge would look like, and although that's the case with many of the films discussed here, the feminist rhetoric being aggressively employed throughout Boy Meets Girl in conjunction with nonsensical violence is a means of demonizing the cause rather than exploring its faults, as Auli Mantila's The Geography of Fear, Abel Ferrara's Ms.45 or Todd Morris's A Gun for Jennifer do more thoughtfully.
