*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
This is a strange, flat, and subdued film that nevertheless has some incidental interest, mostly for Marianne Faithful's performance. She's not only still surprisingly lovely and a rather charismatic actor, but she also in one scene rips off a stream of invective that reminds you just who she is. And if that doesn't remind you, then her sitting at the piano and giving the single best performance of "Londonderry Air" I have ever heard will.
Otherwise, it's a very intelligent little movie that is unfortunately directed in an almost completely lifeless manner; it might have been a better script for someone else to film. Definitely check it out if you're a fan of Faithful's, but I can't really recommend it for anyone else.
