Movie Reviews of Hoffman
Movie Review: Do not underestimate the Sellers!
Summary: 4 Stars
This film is surprisingly tender, and undeniably charming. The tension only works effectively because of the "supposed" repulsion and repugnancy that Cusack feels toward Sellers.The two play remarkably well together, sharing
almost all the scenes together. There is a light,
warm hearted chemistry here, which can only be
found in films from this period.
The ending is where the greatness of what came before is heightened. This film actually has some deep commentary and metaphorical significance concerning the roles of men and women, in relationships today.
I can only say, that, what Hoffman says is true, in his first dramatic monologue in the film.
"These men, with their thoughts,
full of breasts and bottoms and thighs.
Their revolution is almost upon you:
just you wait, just you wait. Hope never dies in a man with a good dirty mind."
You have to love Peter Sellers.
