Review of Father and Son (2003) by Justin C — 16 Jun 2008

After having gone through the pain of watching this movie twice, I still don't get what does homoerotic theme add to the story.

While Sokurov said in some interviews that only perverts can interpret loving and carrying relations between the father and the son as homo-erotic... whatever... obviously he doesn't cast a doubt on his ability to tell the story.

Anyway, One star is for mediocre dialogues, poor acting (made them unbearable to listen), overload with symbols and allegories that are too "in-your-face".
