Review of Flirting (1991) by Scott S — 31 May 2009
Flirting (1990) -- [6.5] -- A coming-of-age romance from down-under, "Flirting" features some very good performances from Noah Taylor and Thandie Newton. (Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts also appear in supporting roles.
) A feeling of longing permeates the movie. It's much less contrived than most love stories, but it also lacks the forward (though usually predictable) thrust of most other romance movies. I enjoyed the characters, and there's a wonderful love scene (if you can call it that), but without greater pressure from antagonizing forces, the movie sorta languishes in the final act.
