Review of The Sacrifice (1986) by Martin T — 19 Feb 2010
When it's not tedious, it's either laughably overdramatic or just plain stupid. It starts out nicely for the first 15 minutes. After that it's rough sailing. There are moments of interesting insight and intriguing imagery (hail Sven Nykvist), unfortunately they tend to get buried by the overly theatrical stage direction, godawful acting (Susan Fleetwood, this means you), and dearth of subtlety.
