Movie Reviews of Lake Consequence
Movie Review: I believe in consequences!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is Joan Severance's best-known role, and there is good reason why. My goodness, she is absolutely captivating! If ever there was a role where an actress could set the film on-fire, this is it. She has a mysterious, demure beauty that so intoxicates me. Wow!
Joan portrays a bored housewife who is having a sort of mid-life crisis. Her husband is a decent man, treats her well and she lives an upscale lifestyle. However, she finds herself "missing" something in her life. She starts to gravitate towards a penniless, buffed-up tree-trimmer (Billy Zane). Eventually, she must choose between the fantasy & reality.
To add to the dynamic, she suffered a traumatic sexual encounter as a teen that has left her scarred, confused and a bit twisted in the sexual sphere. During the film, she discovers that there is more to her erotic dimension than she once thought.
One of the most intriguing aspects of the plot is that the love-triangle differs from most. In the majority of the movies of this type, the 3rd party (in this case, Zane's character) is trying to steal the woman away from her husband. In this case, Zane's beneficent persona knows full-well that her husband will offer a much better life than what he is capable of. And, he has a remorse for possibly interfering with her relationship w/her son.
All in all, if (like me!) you're a fan of erotic movies which do not shy away from a surplus of nudity, then you can't do much better than this film! There is an obvious symbolic gesture in the name of the lake where she pursues her fantasy; in life, we will never be bereft of consequences for our actions.
