Review of Total Eclipse (1995) by Ed Gonzalez for Slant Magazine — 20 Sep 1996
Despite its fascinating subject matter, Total Eclipse is both unflattering and loveless. Holland seems to care very little for the way Rimbaud and Verlaine’s crass relationship was channeled into words.
Worse than DiCaprio’s accent are his and Thewlis’s ludicrous sex scenes.
