Review of Waking the Dead (2000) by Christopher L — 05 Dec 2006
Starring: Billy Crudup, Jennifer Connelly, Molly Parker, Janet McTeer, Paul Hipp, Sandra Oh, and Hal Holbrook.
Directed by Keith Gordon.
Written by Robert Dillon.
Rated [b]R[/b] (for sexuality and language).
Running time approximately 1 hour 46 minutes.
Keith Gordon's masterpiece, [i]Waking the Dead[/i] is a poetic, heartbreaking and beautifully executed story of undying love and the loss we sometimes must accept as human beings with different priorities and destinies. The film is endlessly intriguing as we discover, along with Crudup, the true demise - or lack thereof - of his beloved (Connelly). This is a fantastic achievement, one of 2000's very best films.
