A slow start but worth the wait….
The erroneous synopsis to this stylish if slightly flawed thriller, does not do the intricate, complex story the justice it deserves. Barnaby Southcombe’s debut feature is an adaption of Elsa Lewin’s dark novel of the same name. Shot in various locations around London, it unravels the story of the relationship between a high ranking detective (Gabriel Byrne) investigating the murder of a no good low life, and a middle aged divorcée, Charlotte Rampling, with whom he develops a potentially damaging obsession. The film unfolds slowly but is worth the wait. The film engages the viewer as the pace quickens and story intensifies and things just gets better and better. Strong performances from the two stars as one would expect. A wonderful vehicle for Charlotte Rampling to prove a woman over 50 can be just as sexy and alluring as any 25 year old, she is totally convincing as the fragile, complex protagonist. And a real treat to have Eddie Marsan on screen, every film is improved by his presence, never puts a foot wrong, superb. London is a stylish but never overwhelming backdrop to this pleasing contemporary film noir. And a cracking soundtrack too…
Slow, Confusing, Ultimately Pointless Film
AT the end I wish Bernie had just let Anna jump or better yet pushed her off the ledge. Caught this on Netflix in 2017. I THINK that the daughter and the grand-kid were BOTH imaginary – hence the baby sleeping sign was always on the door. Why was Anna phoning her own apartment from a phone booth? And what’s with the old-fashioned touch phone in 2015? Where did the itchy cast on her broken arm come from – did she get it from killing the match.com date? London is photographed like NYC (Gotham) in a Batman movie and I half expected to see the Caped Crusader and Catwoman appear. This is a plot? HE’S a newly divorced cop (DCI Bernie Kominski – a Brit police chief with a Borsch Belt name and demeanor) who stumbles around like he’s taken far too many of those Ambien pills he’s seen swallowing. SHE’S a lonely, sixtyish woman who works selling mattresses in a department store and hallucinates she’s living w/her (non-existent?) daughter and dead grand-kid. She does in-person speed-dating and during the process runs into a rough-trade character. During a sex hook-up with the dude she kills him in self-defense and can’t remember the killing happened, much less that she did the deed herself. OY VEY Bernie! She ALSO doesn’t remember that while day-dreaming during a babysitting stint she got forgetful (again) and let her grand-kid run off and get killed by a car. So she goes to the park and pushes an empty swing. Bernie gets to investigate the gory murder and despite his attraction to Anna, comes to suspect her and when he comes in for the arrest, she steps out onto the edge of the high-rise and threatens to jump. He pulls Anna (now the love of his heart) back. End of film….
