Review of Far from Heaven (2002) by Filipe C — 25 Dec 2015
Far From Heaven proves that the melodrama subgenre is dead by choice, not by lack of talent to make it. Every scene in Haynes' film explodes with cynicism, irresistible tension and utter disillusionment, a product of a crafted lens with attention to detail and extreme sensitivity to human emotion.
The film soars with social commentary, understanding of the era and, of course, fantastic performances.
