Green Porno: Isabella Rossellini April 5, 2009
Beautiful, smart, funny, sexy… I’ve always loved Isabella Rossellini. Especially today.
Be sure to watch each one, you’ll be glad you did.
Following up the critical and popular success of her 2008 short film series about the sex lives of insects, Isabella Rossellini migrates from the land to the sea in GREEN PORNO 2. Like the first season of Green Porno, this batch of very short films about the reproductive habits of marine animals is scientifically accurate yet extremely entertaining. Executed with a handmade aesthetic, the Green Porno films are a playful mixture of real world and cartoon. Each film features Isabella speaking directly to the camera about the subject at hand, be it the broad topic of mating strategies or the peculiarities of barnacle procreation.
Produced by Isabella Rossellini, Jody Shapiro and Rick Gilbert.
