Bernard Rose on

Bad Timing

Released 1980
Distributor World Northal

AKA: Bad Timing: A Sensual Obsession. Nicolas Roeg followed The Man Who Fell to Earth with this‚ challenging, equally non-linear study of psychosexual compulsion, which begins in the middle, jumps to the end and then back to a prologue, all in the first five minutes. Great use of music by Tom Waits, the Who, Billie Holiday and more. Disowned by its British distributor as “sick”, the US version was originally rated X but toned down somewhat for an R.
