Review of Wicker Park (2004) by Michael O — 28 Mar 2010
One of the best movies. I am extremely impressed. There is a drawback however: this movie requires very good acting in order to pull it off; the actors are often asked to do difficult things (the characters often have abrupt changes of emotion); the actors ARE very good but they are young and each one (except the excellent Jessica Pare) fails to carry a scene convincingly once. The directors stumble badly once too... the scene where the Mustang is in reverse is cliched and jarring. This scene is the kind of scene I expect from BAD directors and it really is a shame that it made it into this fantastic film.
Jessica Pare (Rebecca) is superb. I would see a film solely to see her again. Jessica Pare is superb.
