Director Tom Ford
Genres Drama
Run time 99 mins Certificate 12

3rd January 2010

Tom Ford's directorial debut is painfully slow as it unfolds. It's compounded by periods of slow motion, just in case you felt giddy at the pace. You know, the luvvies are going to love this but I'm guessing it's going to be on DVD very soon and pretty much a box-office disaster. Jaw-dropping experience when Julianne Moore opens her mouth to speak, The voice coach needs to be shot, although to be fair it's not a full Dick Van Dyke moment!

Any upsides? It's quite a short film.

Best advice is to wait for the DVD and not bother to make it a high priority item. Good Luck.
