natalie portman deserves all the accolades for her riveting performance in the movie...
closer...
the dysfunctional relationships between dysfunctionals...
achingly beautiful... at times painful... but never once ideal...
at any one point in time... someone is lying... another is cheating... the other is doubting...
and as they each yearn for complete honesty... they wished that the other party had lied...
and the audience will never really know the truth...
dan wished anna had lied to her about sleeping with larry
anna thinks that she loves dan but decides to stay with larry
larry claims to have slept with alice... but alice is actually jane
alice says that she never lied to dan... but never told him her real name...
dan couldn't accept the fact that anna slept with larry but when she was already sleeping with him while he was having that sordid affair with her...
there is no victim here... just individuals tangled in the web of deceit that they've woven...
and seems like after getting dumped by all the women in alfie... and now the two women here... jude law as a commodity has depreciated in value eh?? and one other thing... somehow the role of anna just screams GLEN CLOSE... the bonafide bitch... julia roberts somehow din quite shine...
and amidst all the pretensions... we actually enjoyed the movie.... go figure...
