Review of Married Life (2008) by Mohammad B — 24 Jun 2008
Exactly the kind of film I love! A twisted premise with both intensely dramatic and darkly comic scenes, a tightly woven narrative connecting a small ensemble in surprising and fun ways, morally ambiguous characters, and a very talented cast bringing the whole thing to life.
Rachel McAdams, Chris Cooper, Patricia Clarkson, and Pierece Brosnan are at their finest in this period tale of infiedelity and murder. Not surprisingly, McAdams can pull off the platinum blonde hair just as well as she can do "normal" blonde, brunette, and pink.
Cooper and Clarkson, always wonderful, don't disappoint, and Brosnan, though given the least to do, manages fine. Watch for David Wenham in a hilarious cameo.
