A Smoking Film
24 January 2005
Warning: Spoilers
I found Jane Fonda's hair rather interesting in this film. It provided a nice distraction from the narrative which plodded along at a rather languid pace. The actors smoked a lot in the film too. I mean in older Hollywood films actors smoked a lot, but they really lit up in this one. In almost every scene Peter Finch was lighting up and puffing away. It's almost like he knew there wasn't much going on dramatically so he might as well smoke a cigarette until the scene was over. I thought for sure Peter Finch was going to die of lung cancer, but then Jane ends up getting really sick, which was okay because that meant the movie was almost over. On the positive side I did enjoy the shots of Greece.
