Magic Marmalade 22nd Jan 2017		Rated 7/10 Saw this on Film4 last night... ... Unfortunately, it;s one of those you can saw next to nothing about plot wise, without spoiling the frequent and pivotal plot twists. It is billed as "Hittchvock-ian" (shiver - I hate when those kind of words are used, they tend to be code for: prepare to be disappointed), and it is, in the feel of the story, and the "suspense" bit, but that's about as far as it goes, as there are more "modern" themes running through this, and a generous helping of Brian De Palma stylisation - he tends to have a very particular brand of photography, and character stereotypes he uses - But he actually uses this aspect to his advantage, by confounding those expectations that he sets up. Basically, it's about a woman, frustrated in her marriage who encounters a serial killer (Blimey, I can;t even say any more than that!), framed by lashings of beautifully, and artistically shot and directed soft porn - again, a De Palma trait (Think of the opening scenes of Carrie.) But while it may seem a little ridiculous at the outset, if this is not you're thing, it does draw you in if you let it go, and just keep watching... and I think, if you do, you will conclude, like me, that it's a pretty great film all round. (If a little dated in some respects) 3 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
