Open Window (2006)
8/10
Tough subject handled gracefully
31 July 2007
Warning: Spoilers
Just caught this movie on Showtime. It's a quiet, subtle film about a tough subject - rape - and the filmmakers handle it with grace and dignity. What's great about the movie is that it deals with the trauma from everyone's perspective - the fiancée, the mom, the dad, the friends - not just the primary victim's. Strong performances from Robin Tunney and Joel Edgerton throughout. I think there are a lot of women who would be interested in seeing this movie, but it would also appeal to men who have been in this situation as well, of which there are probably far too many. Highly recommend seeing this - I think it's airing on Showtime for another few weeks.
