Movie Reviews of Love & Rage
Movie Review: Interesting Daniel Craig Flick
Summary: 4 Stars
This movie is based on a bizarre true story.
Agnes (Greta Scacchi)is a wealthy Englishwoman in late 1800's Ireland who owns an estate in a small Irish village. She enjoys scandalizing the locals by being a divorced woman who smokes, drinks, and rides horses astride on her vast property.
When she sees James (Daniel Craig) at a local country fair she becomes immediately fascinated by the wild, blue-eyed Irishman who wins a brutal horserace.
James is younger than her, and beneath her social status...entirely inappropriate. But this is a woman who thrives on being seen as scandalous, so she enters into an affair with James with relish & delight.
He's a wild man, as well as a bit of a con artist, and the fact that they both seem to delight in taunting "proper" society seems to please her that much more.
But as time passes his wild behavior becomes more & more erratic, and eventually it becomes downright scary. He's unstable, and she's realizing it much too late, after he's insinuated himself pretty deeply into her isolated life.
The movie is a little uneven in quality, and slow in parts. But those interested in Daniel Craig will find this a fascinating movie. Because of the con-artist tendencies of his character he assumes a variety of guises, accents & costumes, and as an actor I'm sure he had fun with the role. Greta Scacchi, as always, delivers a fine top-notch performance.
