Enduring Love (2004)
January 17th, 2005
Having read nothing about this film, I sat down to watch with Alison (my sister) and enjoyed it. The storyline is amazingly credible, the filming, the depth of the characters and the direction really does stand out, I guess being patriotic one could just say “what do you expect from an English film?” but really this was a very good film.
I guess speaking about this film is sort of silly without comparing to others, for it is unlike others in such a way that comparrison is the only fair way to share a view about it. While other films will automatically send you off into that fictional wonderland that you can disconnect later and go “its just a film!” to. Enduring Love makes you feel like you’re part of the film, you can relate to the roles and the personalities, it makes you enjoy it more by making it so personal. Having said all that, it isn’t a revolution that will open your mind and make you see oranges in a new shade of pink… it just is a good film that I highly recommend.
Go and watch it!
P.S. I hear the book is marvelous too, not that I read.
