So I finally watched the movie horny millennials are obsessed with.


Admittedly, I saw 365 Days because I read somewhere that it has plenty of graphic sex scenes. It's Poland's version of Fifty Shades of Grey, and like the Fifty Shades franchise, the movie is based on a novel.

It tells the story of a young woman who is kidnapped and imprisoned by a mafia boss and gives her 365 days to fall in love with him. The scenes are acted badly and the plot is held together by so many nonsensical strings that it turns into a two-hour comedy. But if you're into BDSM, voyeurism, softcore porn, and you find Stockholm syndrome sexy, you might just enjoy this really awful rip-off.

Who's responsible? Directors Barbara Białowąs and Tomasz Mandes, author Blanka Lipinska, an unholy alliance of E. L. James fans, including producers Maciej Kawulski and Ewa Lewandowska.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

What if directors actually looked like the characters in their films?

One of the things I like about the internet is the fact that it provides an endless showcase for the most incredible corners of human creativity. Like, for example, these quirky wooden sculptures by Seattle-based artist Mike Leavitt . For his latest series, King Cuts , Mike transforms some of the most renowned filmmakers into satirical sculptures. They're on view at the Jonathan Levine Gallery in New York until June 11, consists of 16 new hand-carved sculptures of directors like Tim Burton, Alfred Hitchcock, Steven Spielberg and Quentin Tarantino. The artist fused Burton with three of the filmmaker's works;  Batman , Beetlejuice and Edward Scissorhands , while Hitchcock is transformed into one of his own attacking birds. Watch the making of the Tarantino sculpture below. You can also follow Mike on  Instagram to see his work in progress.
