The always elliptical Peter Greenaway once again creates a beautiful film-as-puzzle. The tale begins when a car wreck involving a rare swan kills the wife of a doctor (who has a twin brother, also a doctor). The brothers then form an unusual and strangely close relationship with the woman who was driving the car, now an amputee. Meanwhile, they organize elaborate studies on the decomposition of animals. It's all very beautiful to look at and makes a great companion piece to Cronenberg's 'Dead Ringers'.
