Tinto Brass Hotel Courbet 2009

Hotel Courbet is not widely available on mainstream streaming services but can be found on DVD as part of Tinto Brass collections (e.g., Tinto Brass: Erotici Diversi ) or on niche adult/arthouse platforms. Note that it is unrated but contains explicit nudity and sexual situations by conventional standards.

Here is what the archive confirms:

Through a series of tableaux vivants and staged scenes, Brass brings Courbet's vision to life, reimagining the artist's most famous works in a contemporary context. The result is a film that is at once a tribute to the master's oeuvre and a bold reinterpretation of his themes for a modern audience.

: As with much of Brass's filmography, the "gaze" is a central character. The film explores the dynamic between the performer (the woman) and the unintended audience (the burglar).

Tinto Brass is a filmmaker known for blurring the lines between high-art cinema and explicit eroticism. In 2009, he returned to the short-film format with Hotel Courbet

The soundtrack includes contributions from avant-garde artist Laurie Anderson, which helps establish the short film's unique atmosphere.

: The short stars Caterina Varzi , who also co-wrote the script with Tinto Brass and Piero Fontana .
