Review of Total Eclipse (1995) by Nathalie L — 11 Jan 2007
I still haven't read Rimbaud's biography and I know little about his life, even though he is my favourite poet; but I enjoyed the film and I think Leonardo and David Thewlis were wonderfully wicked and sincere in portraying the poets.
It was a truly satisfying experience seeing an actor like Leonardo, better known for comercial films, take a risk in a role like this and with such commitment. And he did it brilliantly! I had a lot of fun watching as it also shows a lot of Rimbaud's great writing.
A sure delight. Leonardo's best perfomance for sure.
