The Long Kiss Goodnight [DVD] - English Audio | Action Thriller Movie | Perfect for Movie Nights & Gift Giving

After I had bought the tape of this movie I realized that I had seen this movie some time ago, and, although I raley watch most films more than onec, the perfomances by Sigourney Weaver and Ben Kingsley are outstanding.This movie is almost like an emotional play, we have one scene, an isolated house on the cliffs of the seashore, and three characters. Period.... It's probably for that reason that you won't see this film cut on DVD because I don't think it was a project for the masses but probably a project of the director, Polanski, and the actors to show their fabulous range of acting skill. In the case of Sigourney she shows us a lot more than we got in her Alien movies since she does appear totally nude ina bedroom scene from the wait up. Even that scene was critical for us to note the cigar burn scars on her left breast......Ben Kingsley's acting as the wicked DR is absolutely superb (I mean do you expect any less of him) and, although he never managed to convince me of his possible innocence, his acting made everything seem so much like real life ....Weavers portayal of Pauline, the revenging rape victim is electric from point one. Her resolve to make the evil dr Miranda (Kingsley) confess to the torture and rape, while having to listen to her lawyer husband, Stuart Wislon, implore her to be reasonable, is incredible and probably one of her strongest perfomances ....
