Review of The Unbearable Lightness of Being (1988) by Rami R — 13 Nov 2006
A supremely well realized adaptation of a supposedly unadaptable novel. Kaufman realizes a world of love and passion (and the the spaces between the two). Kaufman is aided by a knockout group of international collaborators including DP Sven Nykvist and screenwriter Jean Claude Carriere.
All three of his leads also deliver deeply resonant, impassioned performances by Daniel Day Lewis, Juliette Binoche and Lena Olin (sporting the sexiest bowler hat in film history).
