Review of The Loss of Sexual Innocence (1999) by David Edelstein for Slate — 19 Jul 2002
Much of it is risible, yet I loved watching it -not because I thought that the emperor was wearing new clothes but because I thought he looked fine - beautiful, actually - naked. Figgis' camera is probing and alive, so that even when his meanings are laughable, his images remain allusive and mysterious.
