Review of Valmont (1989) by Lindsay W — 01 Apr 2010
Though Colin Firth tries his hardest to pull off being a French asshole, he was not made for this part. Annette Bening offers a strong performance, though a bit over the top. I'm a fan of period pieces, but this one was hard to get into with most of the characters being without redeeming qualities.
Henry Thomas was about the only thing worth seeing in this - not for his mediocre performance, but because he's freakin' Eliott.
