This movie was awesome and blew me away!
I almost can't believe this movie only get four nomination in Golden Globe & Academy Award but won nothing out of the four nominations.
I was very unhappy because this movie really been underappreciated & underrated.
Fortunately, this movie gets five nominations in L.A. Film Critics Association & New York Film Critics Circle and won all the awards.
The plot of the story was incredibly brilliant.
A housewife Cathy Whitaker (Julianne Moore) was living in a peaceful environment happily but one day she discovered that his husband was a homosexual. Her own world just seems to be shattered and she tries desperately to recover her husband Frank (Dennis Quaid) from homosexual back to heterosexual.
On the other sides, there is a rumor state that she has an affair with his family gardener Raymond Deagan (Dennis Haysbert). Other than that, this movie was all about racism on 50's, etiquette, social events and an overall desire to keep up with the Joneses.
The above was only the main line because I do not want to give away the whole story and ending.
If you want to know what the evolutions are, please watch it yourself and you will be satisfied after watching it.
The acting of this movie was superb and fabulous.
All the actor and actress did a decent job on their own role especially Julianne Moore, she is awesome.
The best actress of Academy Award year 2002 was Nicole Kidman but I think Julianne Moore should win the award although I'm a Nicole Kidman's fans. It is because Julianne blew me away indeed and she does deserve those honors and reputations.
The director of this movie Todd Haynes was a very talented & intelligence director. He makes the whole movie looks classy & excellent and catches the attention of audience easily. In addition, the costume, scenario and cinematography were extraordinary stunning & spectacular.
I think this movie was one of the best movies of all-time.
TWO THUMBS UP!! |
