Reviews Featuring Michael Gaston
Despite parts of the movie not sitting at all well with Haynes' intended period recreation, Far From Heaven undeniably takes a fascinating look at American racism (and, to a lesser extent, homophobia) which is as relevant today as it was in the 50s.
Great Friday night popcorn fodder well worth a rent.
Ridley Scott plus Russell Crowe plus Leonardo DiCaprio plus political intrigue and action equal a thoroughly engaging thriller that will hopefully find more success on DVD than it did in theaters.
Performances go a long way to raise this presidential portrait up into something entertaining, but theres not really anything all that memorable except some great performances by James Brolin, Richard Dreyfuss, and James Cromwell.
