The performances of these veteran actors were great, especially from Nicole Kidman. The sense of danger and ultimate resolution was a bit quick and without consequence.

A lesson in why not to toy with a woman's affections! Spoilers! Prior to seeing the film I had been under the impression that this was a film about a man who takes advantage of the kindness and adoration of a group of women and girls during the civil war. The women and girls then scheme to keep him in their home and dependent on them but when he spurns them, they plot his death. While it has a similar idea it seems Sofia Coppola approached it from both sides. You wonder, did she really do that to his leg because he didn't go to her room? Or was it really because his leg was too badly broken and John was dislusional from pain? While I did enjoy the film, I felt there was something missing which seems to be a sentiment shared with a few of my fellow movie goers. I think a scene where Martha makes a move on John and he refuses her (whether it be because Edwina is watching or because he's not interested) or where John makes amends with Amy at the final dinner and she attempts to stop him but it's too late. Or John and Edwina making plans and her during the aftermath of dinner. Just something.

Movie was short and very slow.

The latest film from Sofia Copolla is a slow burning, tension filled drama that holds many surprises. The cast turn in very strong performances and the beautiful cinematography transports us to the southern states in a way that makes you fell the heat and humidity. A film that is well worth seeing.

Cast did excellent work and there was a subtle humor throughout the film that compliments the style perfectly.

I really enjoyed this movie and the title of is very fitting! It starts one way and ends so very surprisingly. The acting was amazing and the costumes and details were perfect. I highly recommend this movie.
