Today's Random Rumor: Stunt Penis In The Brown Bunny?
Chloë Sevigny finally tries to explain what's going on with her involvement in The Brown Bunny, and as it turns out, people just can't understand an artfully-rendered, cinematically meaningful blowjob the way that they should. Said Sevigny, "I knew people would not understand it. It's a shame people write so many things when they haven't seen it. When you see the film, it makes more sense. It's an art film. It should be playing in museums." Well, there's that one museum in Amsterdam, but we're pretty sure they have enough fellatio footage and their movies are probably better plotted. See, there we go again, making judgments without having seen the movie.
Let's atone by passing on a crazy rumor that we've heard and finally getting the Little Blowjob That Could some much-needed publicity before it opens in New York and L.A. on Friday: Despite his assurances that he and Sevigny shot the famously graphic faceful "using remote cameras while he and Sevigny were alone in the room," the part of Vincent Gallo's, er, part was actually played by Sevigny's former boyfriend, A.R.E. Weapons singer Matt McAuley. Stunt cock controversy! Nobody we know who has actually seen the movie can confirm whether or not Gallo's face is visible in the frame during the act. Perhaps they've already gone through the healthy process of expunging the image from their minds? But there you have it: Gallo's big, thick penis might just be another genius "publicity stunt." Feel free to correct this crazy rumor if you know we're wrong, because we hope we're all debating Gallo's masterwork decades from now, like any other museum piece.
