A fabulous story and a gem of an acting job by the lead actress. Excellent story with twists and turns.

3* because I didn't like the development of the story; it made me realize that the director was trying to make me see his view of the story. Tha'ts... a no-no. Tell me a story but don't try to tell me what to see, conclude or think about it. I kept up with the 'movements' of the movie and I guess that's why I felt irritated. I spoke with some people afterwards and we all agreed that the movie had a lot of "folly" in it. That is, movies that have people doing wrong things for a "motive" --love or money or politics and power...will rest with the audience a lot better than stupid-looking people doing stupid-looking stuff for stupid-looking reasons. That makes everybody feel stupid, including the audience for coming to see such a thing. It was 3* good cinema that could have been improved by a much better script. --MO Full Review
