Customer Reviews
Has Moments
A tale of existential desolation, it has moments but is self-indulgent and scattered.
I bought this because I was impressed by Thom Hoffman in "Black Book," and because Mr. Hoffman could apparently move from a "brave" perfomances in films like "Fourth Man" to "ultrabrave" (soft-core at least) stuff like this to touring the Netherlands as Henry Higgins in "My Fair Lady."
An Elegy for the Lost
A weird movie to watch. Not a piece you want to see, if you're used to Titanics and Dances with Wolves. Yet: a very melancholy tone runs through the whole film, leaving you dreamy and unpredictable. Which proves interesting, because I am not a person who likes pornography to be 'thrown at her face' as a 'piece of culture'.
Actually: judge for yourself! You won't be disappointed.
