I'm not sure where to start in a review of the movie, Truly, Madly, Deeply.
Between a magnificent score, the impeccable performances of the two leads and the unspoilt raw emotion, this movie will appeal to anyone. Well, in my mind, it should appeal to anyone.
Juliette Stevenson's performance is unbelievable good. I doubt many could have captured the pain she expressed in the now famous piano/cello scene. Grief at its finest if grief can ever been seen this way.
As for Allan Rickman, the role seems perfect for this actor of limitless talent. The chemistry between he and Stevenson is obvious to most and touching to those who are a little more in tune with such a feeling.
In between many highs and lows of gut wrenching emotion, this movie has lots of light and cheerful moments that truly add some balance to this real life drama.
Love and loss are, in some, the most raw and powerful of emotions. This movie stretches love and loss to its limits. And just when you think you've seen and felt enough, a little more is added in for good measure. After all, love and loss hurt - in differing ways.
Some will relate to this movie. Many will be touched by its expression of devotion and the human challenge of moving on. But, for me, the important message from the movie is that we can all move on and live...its just harder for some.
See this; its magnificent. A definite 10/10...
