Wonderful Wonderful movie


I gave this movie a 9. I never award 10s and this is probably the first 9. Great writing, brilliant acting from all involved, clever plot, funny and poignant at the same time and it quite amazingly made me feel empathy for the wife and girlfriend at the same time.

I really enjoyed this movie too. The dialogue was fantastic and Marcia is such a great actor. I am surprised with the low amount of votes on imdb having just over 500. Perhaps it is getting a late released in other countries. Well I hope that is why.

I also gave it a 9. But, I do give out some 10s, mostly to classic movies. I thought the movie was amazing, despite this not really being the genre that I like. Bravo.

Clever script and wonderful acting-- too bad these movies don't get more attention

OMG! Thank you! I loved it too!

Yes, the third act gets a little messy. Some of the plot could have been edited. But the film is still fun as hell. MGH is amazing! Leonor Watling is excellent!

And why doesn't someone do a Queen Lear anyway??

"And why doesn't someone do a Queen Lear anyway??"

If they do, I hope they do it in Outer Mongolia. I get really annoyed by directors and producers who hope to improve on a classic by imposing their own ridiculous concepts. Yesterday I listened to Verdi's "Macbeth" from the Metropolitan Opera. I wish I had tuned in after the announcer said the production is set in a vaguely modern era, and that the witches would be dressed as housewives carrying shopping bags.

I loved it. Amazon reviewers seem to as well.

Great character development and one really feels for these women. Really enjoyed this film!
