a long and strange movie

Rating: 6/10 (18 July 1999)

i was taken by surprise about this movie because i knew so little about it before going in. it was hard to get the fact out of my mind that the main two characters are actually married to each other. ie- is tom jealous about the sex scenes between nichol and the fantasy sailor? do they talk like this at home? anyway, the acting seemed a bit stilted to me, and the basic story was strange to say the least. it is certainly the voyeur's delight with more full frontal nudity than i have seen in a long time. i would recommend seeing it just by a slim margin. would be a much better choice overall to wait for the video....
