Comments:
An
erotic thriller - a cut above the rest. The story,
atmosphere, art direction, acting, cinematography
and chemistry between leads were all outstanding.
Even the music was perfect.
Meg Ryan was very annoyed with Parkinson during a
recent TV interview, she was a downright "handful"
when discussing the ideas behind this film. I think
Parky didn't "get" this film at all, just
going on about nudity and controversy. Having seen
the film now I can understand how lame it must be
to hear someone say this film is rude or controversial
without seeing the depth achieved within the framework
provided, at least partially by the aforementioned
items.
As an older "chick" I completely appreciate
this film. It is what I call real romance and real
eroticism - nothing like usual movie fare. Movie romances
are so boring, it was nice to see something believable.
