Remarkable

Rating: 8/10 (3 September 2002)

This is indeed an extraordinary film. On screen, not all that much happens, but the movie is so successful in creating atmosphere and relationships and then watching them develop that I was gripped for the hour and 40 minutes or so that it was on. Excellent attention to detail helps too. The acting, however, is no better than adequate and the ending is rather weak. We've had our fun by then though, so these problems don't spoil things too much. Recommended. Rating: 8/10.
