"Waking the dead" offers excellent performances by some 2nd tier actors, particularly Crudup and Connelly. However, the story about two people, intensely in love, with opposing ideologies (a politician and a revolutionary), suffers from a choppy series of flashbacks and fastforwards and the thin line between reality and paranormal it treads. Not for general consumption and not to be missed by cinematic devotees.
