Star quality is all about lighting up the screen just by being there.
Liv Tyler is blessed with star quality. In plain English, it's her sexual coming out party. But this daughter of literary giants isn't just restless for a lover, she's on a more mysterious mission. You can feel the sexual tension in the air, especially during her platonic scenes with older, man of the world, Jeremy Irons. Oscar winning director Bernardo Bertolucci builds up the sensual atmosphere with an elegant style.
