Review of Savage Grace (2007) by Sarah A — 26 Jul 2008

This was a disturbing and upsetting film. I never read the novel nor was particularly familiar with the true story it was based on. As a film, it seemed 'abridged' and the script felt very rushed.

This could have been a film that was a disturbing portrayal of incest, money, homosexuality, corruption, and mental health issues, but instead the script was choppy and it never gave the viewer a full understanding of the motivations of any of the characters.

Still, I give it 3 stars for the acting. Julianne Moore was chilling.
