Intersection

A remake of the French film LES CHOSES DE LA VIE, INTERSECTION places Vincent Eastman (Richard Gere), a successful architect, between his indifferent, beautiful, aristocratic wife, Sally (Sharon Stone), and his free-spirited lover, Olivia (Lolita Davidovich). Although it seems that Vincent has made a decision to leave Sally for Olivia, he remains emotionally torn, especially when he wonders how a divorce might affect his 12-year-old daughter, Meaghan (Jenny Morrison), with whom he is very close. If Vincent doesn't make a decision soon, he might find himself at a crossroads where he will be forced to make a choice and suffer the cataclysmic consequences. Using flashbacks and, in one climactic scene, beautifully eerie slow-motion camerawork, director Mark Rydell's INTERSECTION brings back the heartwrenching feeling and intricacies of old Hollywood melodramas.

    Few will remember the glossy French movie Les Choses de la Vie, of which this is an even glossier remake. Richard Gere is a well-groomed architect, married to Sharon Stone and having an affair with journalist Lolita Davidovich. The usual ménage à trois, then, with designer labels, capped teeth, smart furniture and doting daughter, all droolingly shot and written like a TV soap. The trick is to give Gere's dilemma (Sharon or Lolita?) some resonance, so a stunningly staged car smash takes centre stage and takes the decision out of his hands. Impossible to film in Britain as we have roundabouts.

    Something to see

    Despite the 'stars' in the film, what I really enjoyed about this movie was the simplicity of the story, depicting how complicated life can be in a real setting. There was no excess drama, but real emotions displayed. It was a nice change from the stereo-typical Hollywood films that came out. You had a sense that the characters relaxed and put themselves in a real-life human experience. Worth seeing and reflecting on.
