Review of The Remains of the Day (1993) by Kate J — 31 Aug 2007
In a movie about wasting your life... Well, this is 134 minutes I'll never get back. Very fine acting, very relevant things to say, and yet, this movie failed to engage me. I can do with little dialogue and subtle plot, I can deal with a movie that leaves its point a mystery to be solved, but this was just unsatisfying.
It so thoroughly portrayed waste, the movie itself feels like a waste; it almost makes you wonder what the point of it was. I know, and yet, it seemed totally lacking.
