An Eye Opener

Rating: 8/10 (22 December 2000)

This movie was a thought provoker. Overall, the acting and atmosphere are a bit over the top and the slow pace detracts a bit, but as any work of art, the spectator needs to fathom a message for him or herself.
The central theme explores the theme of how much truth one should share with ones lover. Can one live with a charade, especially with ones most intimate confidant? Whether a sexual fantasy or an entanglement in a murder, do we kill a part of ourselves by lying or not revealing this truth, or does sanity necessitate a scheme of white lies within and without oneself.
This film makes a daring attempt to get people talking about what they really think and feel.
