Review of The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover (1989) by Astrid Antoinette O — 13 Nov 2007
Warning: Don't let the first few minutes of the onset of this movie turn you off; it sets the tone for the character of the crude and appalling husband.
If you enjoy amazing cinematography, set & costume design (the outfits are stunning), you'll enjoy this highly artistic film. I love the ingenious form of castigation "the wife" devises for her "thief" of a husband, as the movie comes to a close. It's highly stylized and wickly brilliant and I love it!
