wonderful love story

Rating: 10/10 (17 October 2005)

i think this film is wonderful. M. Night Shyamalan is a brilliant director all of his films are of first class quality and this one is of no difference. He never seems to fail in giving an excitingly wonderful twist, and the actors chosen to be characters in his films are complete complements to them in every way. the romance and love of ivy and Lucius came through so clearly, it spoke beyond human reach. he shows how love is all one needs to survive in this world in a way that is believable yet not at the same time because 'the village' is set in a some what 19th century setting for the towns people.Bryce Dallas and Joaquin Phoenix perform the main parts practically perfect and i don't think anyone else could of played them better.They act just as i imagine two people in that deep of love would act and their body language and voice shows it now M. Night Shyamalan may not have been aiming for this type of 'apperance or theme' that i got from this movie but i believe that if he was he pulled it off perfectly. love i believe is an emotion not many directors can achieve in films if it is not truly there but M. Night Shyamalan does and for that i solute him.
