Review of Far from Heaven (2002) by Mark R — 16 May 2015
Embarrassingly bad - almost laughable attempt to clone a Douglas Sirk classic. I don't think it could have been much worse had Todd Haynes tried to.
Make a dud. I persuaded a black American friend to watch it with me and had to spend the rest of the evening apologizing. I cringed as poor Mr Haysbert had to speak ridiculous lines in the dullest attempt at "stylizing" I have ever seen.
