CLOSER: Anyone seen this *** drama?

The pervert inside all of us. :P

hehe. It stars Jude Law, Julia Roberts, Clive Owen, and Natalie Portman. A cold, dark, realistic, sexual film about adult relationships. Oh, and it is funny in its entirety.

Many people have been caught off-guard while watching the film, I for one. You'd think of conventional relationships, the characters falling in and out of love. Well, that's not half of what the movie is offering.

The actresses are in their most surprising roles. Portman is known for quite pleasant films, yet in this film, she plays a stripper-- and she does strip. :8O: So is Julia- but you'll never see her in any other film saying "f*ck" or "cum". haha. Jude Law plays a man who fell victim of his own lapses. But the best performance goes to Clive Owen, who plays a somewhat "perverted" doctor.

It is a hard, challenging film to watch. You'd cringe and get disgusted... but you'll realize it's a mirror of sexual relationships in society today, and you'll get the hang of the characters after a while. Great dialogue. This film also portrays the phrase "I love you" as a cliche-- which is mostly true.

Go watch it... but I wouldn't take my family with me. hehe. R18 stuff.

Can't take my mind off of you,
can't take my mind,
my mind,
Until i find someone else!

Best picture man tingali. Pero cgurado ko si Clive Owen ang #1 contender sa Best Supporting Actor for his work in this movie.

saw it. dialogue and acting is just awesome. the script is also based on a stageplay hence the spontaneous dialogue. very good IMO.
