Review of Orlando (1992) by Marjorie Baumgarten for Austin Chronicle — 01 Jan 2000
Holding this highly mannered but incredibly beautiful work together is lead actress Swinton who appears in nearly every shot. Also a favorite of director Derek Jarman, Swinton conveys such an intelligence and grace that it penetrates and expands whatever material she is handling.
Let's hope that the arthouse success of Orlando makes Swinton a more frequent visitor to our shores.
