2004 Directed by Mike Nichols
A witty, romantic, and very dangerous love story about chance meetings, instant attractions, and casual betrayals. Two couples disintegrate when they begin destructive adulterous affairs with each other.
the most underrated scene in film history: when jude law catfishes clive owen by IMing him "sit on my face fuckboy" in Closer (2004)
This might actually be the most brutally honest and unapologetic film I have ever seen. The dialogues are sharp as knife and they just cut through you. It is true that the truth sometimes hurts. When the truth is bitter and something that we do not want to know, it hurts like fucking hell.
I must admit that this is not a film which everyone would like. Films everyone likes would be average, crowd pleasers. That is why everyone likes it. But there are love hate films like these, where the amount of liking that some have would almost dwindle the amount of liking that the entire audience has for a film which looks good to everybody.
I loved it…
In which that monotonous fog horn turns all sour, Julia Roberts isn't annoying, Jude Law embraces his inner twatness with great success and Natalie Portman outacts the lot of them.
It's bitter, bleak and cynical. In short, my idea of a perfect Valentine's Day film.
This movie had me at that very first scene. Natalie gracefully sweeping through the London with her blue hair while Damien Rice sings "I can't take my eyes off of you". This movie is a tough blow to a romantic soul. Thankfully, I'm a realist and a somewhat depressive so it played out in the most delightfully gritty, raw, and painful way.
This movie gets an extra half star for the sole fact that Jude Law calls Clive Owen a Fuckboy.
“Lying is the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off, but it’s better if you do”
Perhaps the most iconic line in history
the sex chatroom was so entertaining.... oh my god and you can clearly see a theatric background
Un susseguirsi di Incontri fortuiti e Bugie.
Perchè ci dimostra che il caso struttura le nostre vere vite, i nostri incontri, le cose che facciamo, chi siamo e chi diventiamo.. forse giusto con qualche coincidenza in meno per noi che siamo veri.
E perché ci parla del tradimento in un modo tutto suo, l’infedeltà (non solo fisica!!) spinta dalla passione, perché nulla é più potente del sesso apparte la morte e non c’è nulla da discutere su questo.
Qui ci sono quattro personaggi strani, vigliacchi, fragili, deboli, ossessivi, esattamente come noi!
The film is a bit (I use an eufemism) boring just immediately after the middle. Jude Law is one of the four actors that I think managed to keep the scene the best. Not a surprise though. Well...the plot is for sure the worst part of the movie, especially how the couple Anna/Larry meets, after that obscene chat conversation. I think chats should be forbidden in a movie, because they give a so B-Movie idea, that are impossible to comprehend in a "serious" project.
