Product: Julia (1971)
Rating: 5.0
Film with unusual atmosphere
I watched this film several times and it always had a big impact on me.It is an unusual American film, since it is more "european" or intimate in style. It is very gentle, a bit feminine, more about feelings than action, still a very interesting.The actors, especially Jane Fonda and beautiful Vanessa Redgrave are amazing! I loved the scenery. I loved the girls who played Julia and Lilly as young girls. They were so charming and pure.There was something unique about the friendship of these women but I also could identify with both of them.Vanessa Redgrave played herself, since she is a political and social activist. This helped her to be very natural.Lilly (Julia) was also very real with her devotion to the friend but also fear of the consequences.I loved the film, I loved the main plot and all these extra twists caused by the impending war. I was born in Poland and I know how war can affect people's life in all aspects.
