writeontom Review of The Grand Seduction

The Grand Seduction (2013)

I Enjoyed It...But the Virginity Issue...Just Odd....

[7/10 · 16 June 2014]

I thought the movie was fantastic, although I did not realize it was a remake. It was nearly perfect - except for the daughter's virginity issue...Why was that even included? Taylor Kitsch is a very good actor. I was pleasantly surprised that he didn't play a "tough guy"...His performance had heart and soul. Mr. Gleeson did a very good job playing the mastermind - if you will. I always believe that from desperation comes the best work we do in life as human beings..The scenery was amazing. And the two elderly switchboard operators were a hoot. So glad to see an independent movie - not some mindless blockbuster...It was a real movie - with real people. Very good.
