REVIEW

February 7, 2005

traditional melodramu on the love triangle directed by Mike Nichols takes a kind of contrary. Stories predatelstv and edit - all in melodramah is usually the most ÓÍÁËÏÍ - he makes to the periphery, outside the frame, and the narration of fragments, allowing a large time gaps, leaving only a talk-interchanges. Earlier vzaimoneponimanie heroes, the pain of loss, frustration relationship consisted of deceit and lies, now all the same - exclusively from the truth, the pathological desire of the four characters to stay honest to each other, in whatever has been, until cardiac wounds and bleeding. Hence the special, no matter what do not like pressure, when you do not know anyone who does not pereigraet in their villainy, and in its sincerity. The cast bezukoriznen quartet, but betrayed and abandoned, Alice and Larry sympathy far more than the fatal Denu and Anne, who can fall in love, but not very capable of love. It is felt, perhaps, and kinoakademiki, noting the composition of the actor's nominatsiyami is Natalie Portman and Clive Owen.
