    Easy Virtue

    by Danland

    by Declan Lyman

    Easy Virtue is a rip roaring "I'm back" from director Stephan Elliott, the mad genius behind "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert". After taking a nine year hiatus from directing after a near fatal skiing accident, Mr Elliott dives head first into Noel Coward and the result is pure cinematic eye and ear candy, and a must see for any true lovers of cinema. And just when you think you've figured out where the film is going...slap...it takes a completely different turn. The cast is perfection, with Kristin Scott Thomas and Colin Firth as standouts. Even Jessica Biel manages to shine (for once) in a role that she had to prove to the director that she could handle it. She has, like Mr Elliott, more than succeeded. Run to see Easy Virtue, you'll be dancing on a cloud all the way home after seeing this dream movie.

    If you like Noel Coward, you will love this movie -- extremely well acted and photographed. But if you like Noel Coward, you will not even be botherede with reading reviews.

    And if you are neutral about Noel, you will still like it, particularly if you can enjoy stories about dysfunctional, but funny, old English families with big estates.

    And the music is great.

    How can this movie not be rated highly. Sure, it's a remake (like some many others). However, you'll find a film with excellent camera work, funny and engaging script.

    The only fault I found in Easy Virtue is the fact it took so long to make it to American shores. Similar to Bend It Like Beckham, Easy Virtue is already out as a DVD in the UK. Don't let fact dissuade you from going to the theater and you'll be rewarded with a movie filled with sarcastic humor in the way only the British can succeed.

    I give Easy Virtue a "Go" rating. But it is really closer to 4 1/2 stars if Fandango were to let me.
