I really hate to do the "comparing LotR to everything else Elijah does" thing, but did anyone else find that clip rather distractingly Gollum/Smeagol-esque? (Although I think the "you" in his head that he's talking to here is his mother, not himself, which is closer to real schizophrenia than Gollum/Smeagol.)
Okay, that was Hot. Scary and creepy and sad, but also en fuego. Elijah is a very sexual being, but subtly so. I got goosebumps. (and the nudity seemed almost secondary - just very sad).
That was the scene that I felt very torn about in the movie theatre. It's not SUPPOSED to be hot. But, as it was Franklijah, and we even get rare glimpses of (part of his) exquisite belly-button, I really enjoyed looking. Until Frank started to strangle poor Lucie, of course. And everything that followed.
But that's one example that we get actually to see more of Elijah than I had expected, judging by the early reviews.
there was something familiar to me about this scene. haven't seen maniac but whatever it was that was familiar was in the back of my mind all day. finally it hit me. it's the music! the same music that's played here is the same music in that creepy scene in silence of the lambs when buffalo bill is dressing up like a woman.

If they continue to post new clips, the whole film will be on the internet before it is released in the US. ;-)
