| User ReviewJoe MActually really good. Well cast with an interesting storyline and characters. Was amusing the way that Joe, the doorman, just accepted the strange comings and goings at the house where he worked. Sort of a feelgood film. |
| User ReviewJohnny MThis is a beautiful film. Not quite as good as "Friends and Crocodiles" in my opinion but definatly Poliakoff at his subtle, intricate, wonderful best. Its hard to say what its about, its about people, changing times, power, lust, the fine line between beauty and the grotesque. Yet it may not really be about any of those things, as usual Poliakoff's work is hard to pin down, but its definatly worth watching that much i am sure of. |
| User ReviewRed LJoe is the caretaker of an empty house. His employer doesn't live in the house as there are bad memories associated with it. During the movie with Joe's help, the owner finds out the pre-World war history of his family. |
| User ReviewWS WStarts out thrilling but steadily seems losing its direction. Compared to Danny Lee Wynter's lousy acting, Michael Gambon looks particularly refined in this. |
| User ReviewXolelwa Nokay the main reason i watched this film was cause Gambon was in it and some big old house. the film is slow and mostly uninteresting but the relationships between the characters are the real interest eventhough they are far between. Joe himself is somewhat a retard in the sense he's a little ignorant of the world but is played well. but my main interest is Gambon's performance as a cukoo but cool billlionaire. |
