“Loved it, and really enjoyed our screenwriter guest. The ambiguities of the story create a tension for eroticism that never lets up, not even in the closing frame. A masterful, enjoyable achievement with wonderful performances throughout.”
“Exciting, but draining. What a performance on the part of Julianne Moore!”
“Loved it. Great bodies!”
“The house reminds me of ICE STORM. The chill was palpable.”
“Well, I wonder what Hillary, Silda, Jennifer and Elizabeth would have to say about this! Eroticism to the ninth degree. Wow! Great acting on the part of Amanda Seyfried.”
“To tell the truth will the real adulterer please stand up.”
“A psychologically intriguing journey of sexuality and emotional confrontations. What a cast to portray the characters! Amazing performances. Julianne Moore’s ability to show such a range of feelings is remarkable. Amanda’s eyes are mesmerizing. She too can show emotions in such a skillful way she goes from pony tailed college student to glamorous seductress (thanks to makeup too). These actresses are brave to show themselves (literally).”
“An intriguing film!”
“This is a realistic adult film. It’s about deep relationships reminiscent of the classic SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY. (That’s a huge compliment!)”
“Please give Julianne Moore Sandra Bullock’s Oscar.”
“A fascinating film.”
“A beautifully realized film. A truly erotic and artistic achievement by a great director and wonderful cast.”
Julianne, what were you thinking with that ugly red party dress? And what an ugly house. Ugly all around. I’m not opposed to erotica, but no turn-on here. This was porn to no purpose. I don’t get why Chloe had a fixation on Catherine from the very start? I don’t buy the family dynamics and the ending - woo! Happily ever after.”
“Atom Egoyan can do no wrong. Loved the two sides of a woman, young and aging. Obessional behavior is so compelling. Loved the scene with the women at lunch, sexy and so compelling. Great casting and a script which allows you to meander through Catherine’s journey and your own as you watch. A visual feast! Great guest; I loved the complexity.”
“Marvelous. Everything came together in a total package.”
“This just isn’t very interesting. It needed better acting to work at all. I kept wondering where they were and how they got there, because I wasn’t interested in what was happening in the film.”
“Mysterious, pulsating, sexual movie that totally absorbed me. Reminiscent of SECRETARY and FATAL ATTRACTION…equally encompassing both men and women, young and old, sensual and those that left their sensuality behind. I loved this film. Can’t wait for next film. I also loved that Erin writes strong women and my heart broke for Liam dealing with the death of his wife in reality and the death of his marriage on film.”
“Interesting film with a great cast. Terrible ending for Chloe.”
