Review of Boxing Helena (1993) by Mark N — 04 May 2012
What on paper you imagine a pretty harsh movie about kidnap and dolcett behavior would be a shocking exploration of physical and emotional relationships. However when the movie turns out to be a stilted and passionless talker with scant realism you quickly deduce the ending and find it neither titillating nor illumination.
Fenn was brave to take on the role that bankrupted Basinger and while at her most beautiful the dream like quality of the dialogue often leaves her sounding as well as looking ridiculous.
