SISTER MY SISTER
A film review by Jason Becker
Copyright 1996 Jason Becker
This is an excellent film from Director Nancy Meckler. An adaptation of a true story of two sisters who become lovers; the performances by Joely Richardson and Jodhi May (the sisters) are inspiring. The intimacy between the two is touching and beautiful (and erotic). I especially liked the direction of these scenes - in particular, the breathing of the sister Lea.
The most convincing true love story since The Professional's Leon and Matilda.
I must also praise the screenplay. I thought that I might have to be patient with this film but that wasn't the case at all! From beginning to end the film had me hooked.
This really is a must-see!
Regards,
Jason
