Review of The Ice Storm (1997) by Bruce B — 25 Feb 2009
Never heard of this one before and I have no idea how it got on my to see list, but its a Film that captured the 1969-1974 time frame, to my surprise Tobey Maguire (Spiderman) plays in this movie and one of the early scenes is he's riding on a train reading a Fantastic Four comic.
But the film shows the life of two families in 1970, notice I didn't say dysfunctional, hell we were all dysfunctional back then but because we all were, we were considered normal. Its a good film, would not be enjoyed by most, you have to have a flair for the unusual, like Harold & Maude have to be in your favorites list.
My My how Christina Ricci has changed. Its worth 4 stars.
