Review of All Fall Down (2014) by Roger R — 25 Nov 2011
One of those films made in the 60s in B&W as a creative choice which always make me feel emotionally cold, almost film noir set in a suburban street of everytown America . Packed with serious acting talent with the impossibly handsome Warren Beatty possibly playing himself, a narcissist with and entitlement schema.
Eve Marie Saint is the ageing incredibly beautiful echo, sophisticated and worldly (it at first seems). Karl Malden plays the amusingly ironic figure of an alcoholic leftie turned real estate broker and Angela Lansbury his dominant, calculating and infuriatingly stifling wife, and mother to the perfectly innocent looking Brandon De Wilde.
Almost a great film, certainly a very good one, which asks many more questions than it answers.
