That Day in the Park -- chilling and DARK
If i could, i would write a review about Michael Burns, but That Cold Day in the Park is about a lot more than his gorgeous mug and superb acting.I read the book a long time before i saw the movie with MB and Sandy Dennis and almost nobody else. The book was disturbing, very dark, definitely R-rated, shockingly violent. So, for a very long time, i did not see the movie even though i knew it was my last chance to see Michael Burns in his acting career.Well, guess what. The movie "That Cold Day in the Park" takes a step back from the intense noire nature of the book, and i must say the book is excellent reading if You LIKE the dark side of reality. The movie would not rate R in this new era. No full nudity of anyone. No blood and gore, honest, though i cannot promise no violence. There is a disturbing psychological malfunction in the main character portrayed wonderfully by Sandy Dennis. And there are whimsical moments that will make You smile.
