I Wept When I Saw This

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

I like the acting of Francesca Annis, Kristin Scott Thomas and Shelley Winters; but what were these ladies thinking? Why ever did they allow themselves to become involved in this weak melodramatic rubbish? The action was slow....they had numerous loooooong shots of vans arriving which was total padding! Exciting? Not!

The characters weren't fleshed out at all. They all seemed totally wooden and wishing they were somewhere else.

Francesca Annis' character was being hounded by anonymous telephone calls. She was already insecure and hysterical and the anxiety she suffered made her take more tranquilisers and recreational drugs than were good for her. She was supposed to be breaking up with her lover, Ted (whom she suspected of being responsible for the anonymous calls) but the film showed their initial pre-lovemaking fumblings by the lake where she eventually met her death! People making love just before they split up? Were we meant to believe this? What a weak story!

I rented this because I like Kristin Scott Thomas but this is certainly no English Patient. Rent something else with Kristin in it. Up till now I hadn't seen a dud film with her in the cast list but this was the exception to the rule.

Francesca Annis spent most of the film feeling overwrought - by the end of the film, I knew how she felt!
