Review of Married Life (2008) by Sv G — 10 Nov 2009
Both subtle and dark, much in the style of Hitchcock, this thriller is wonderfully told, beautifully filmed and above all offers excellent performances by everyone involved. Chris Cooper delivers in his role as a husband caught between the want to be with his beautiful girlfriend and a way to rid of the wife he simply no longer wants to spend his life with.
Takes place in 1949 and the colors uses, the costumes and the old noir way this was filmed is an absolute treat. May I add that Pierce Brosnan was an excellent choice as the suave bachelor friend of Cooper's and Patrica Clarkson is perfection as Cooper's wife.
The DVD offers 3 alternate endings...all interesting.
