8/10
to see main character
1 May 2003
"House of Fools" is a quirky drama from Russia by a director who has done films in America. Set in a mental hospital, the main character (Yuliya Vysotskaya and the main reason for seeing this) believes she is engaged to Canadian Bryan Adams (a motion picture composer and singer -- who appears in the film). Even though a patient, she ministers to, entertains, and protects the patients. As war breaks out, the hospital is in the middle of things and the staff disappears. There is a mixture of harsh reality and dreamy serenity. Sub-titled. GRADE = "B-"
