The Pillow Book (1995)
Pretentious, annoying, and poorly-written, but good-looking.

Greenaway gets points for showing scads of penises. There are naked men on screen for fully half of this movie. However, the story is straight out of sophomore film (fiction, poetry, whatever) class. The writing is terrible and melodramatic. The look of the film is actually quite stunning at times, but good looks can only overcome so many glaring personality flaws.
