| User ReviewJay BExcellent movie!! A powerful dark tale of beauty, passion and revenge. The movie did not let the novel down at all. Sidney Sheldon's best! |
| User ReviewStephen MThe Other Side of Midnight was my first Sidney Sheldon novel. I was 12 years old. It opened my eyes and changed my life. I think it was when I came to understand sex and, thus, became an adult. Sidney Sheldon became my favourite writer. Natch, I was going to be disappointed in any film version of his work. Not true. While his later works suffered from the transfer to film (most notably the horrible BLOODLINE), this one stays really true to the book. It's nicely filmed, using all the elements needed to tell an epic tale of love and revenge and I approve of the casting, especially Marie France Pisier and Susan Sarandon. John Beck is ok; not great but not offensive - but let's face it. It isn't about the men, it's about the women. The story and the movie are high drama, even melodrama, at its best; and Pisier at her most beautiful. Released on dvd a year or so ago, it's worth a look see. |

| User ReviewKristyn WShoddy Synopsis: A woman is basically sold by her father to be raped by a fat, hairy, sweaty, older man. This woman falls in love with a lying/cheating bastard who thinks he has game. Bumping and grinding ensues. Booobs! Woman waits for the lying/cheating bastard to marry her when he returns from war, he decides to knock up a few chicks in different countries instead, and abandon each of them. Woman realizes that she is preggers with lying/cheating bastard's baby. Woman aborts baby with a hanger in her bathtub. Disgusting. Woman plots revenge for years. Has sex with several men and is just effing naked all of the time. Lying/cheating bastard coaxes another innocent woman to marry his dumb ass. More nudity. More sex. More boobs. First jilted woman finds out and wants innocent new wife dead. Lying/cheating bastard cowardly leaves wife to die in a cave. He then sends a search party to find her. WTF? She lives! She dies?...Poor jilted woman driven to insanity by lying/cheating bastard is sentenced to death by a firing squad. WTF happens to lying/cheating bastard?...Dead wife is now a zombie nun? Drama! |
